California has the highest poverty rate in the United States of the United States of America Arizona not far behind 

governmental it's very a governmental state very heavily governed or socialized or whatever you want to call it but anyways let's look at the article and I'll give you a little bit of my peace of mind of what I think ok so it goes on to say let me click on the article here okay California has the highest poverty rate in the United States Arizona not far behind this is very troubling California is what what it's welt Silicon Valley Hollywood and it's liberal politics has the highest poverty rate in the United States when the cost of living combined with the income levels Arizona which likes to contrast its costs business and political climate to California isn't far behind and has the fifth highest poverty rate when living costs are included in the poverty statistics this is big people that is according to Supplemental poverty measure drew port by the US Census Bureau Arizona has seventeen point five percent poverty rate according to SPM measure which adds the cost of living housing and you utility bill and income levels let me zoom this in a bit so I can actually freaking see it through my phone the fifth highest in the u.s. behind not only California 20.6% Florida nineteen percent Louisiana in New York both at seventeen point nine percent according to census bureau California which is a mega mega companies such as Apple nasdaq:aapl Walt Disney NYSED is Intel Facebook Google alphabet company parent company has tons of wealth and does well economic work well on economic indicators such as per capita GDP and workforce participation rate but California's high cost of living especially in San Francisco San Diego Silicon Valley and Los Angeles where real estates are astronomically compared to Phoenix coupled with high number of immigrant and other working in lower payout jobs making household budgets tight and dries up its SPM poverty rate and then it's underlined here at also drawing attention considering that California sorry someone's messaging here the California's more progressive policies are higher minimum wage and social welfare programs according to Los Angeles Times so it's very socialized right and then it goes on to say here the official poverty which looks like the income ranks in California tied for 17th in the u.s. at 15 percent rate New Mexico has the highest rate in traditional measure at 22 percent according to the census data for as for Arizona the state has 18.8% property rate other the traditional measure that has the fifth highest among the US states behind me Mexico Louisiana Kentucky at 20 points so Louisiana 21.7% Kentucky at 20.7% and Ole Miss at 20 point percent Arizona has the longest attracted business jobs real estate investors and transplants from California some of them seek lower costs and business friendly climates and more conservative politics and culture a number of major California companies including Intel and apple also have operations in Phoenix so guys you need to know that this is let me give you my humble opinion now my humble this is the article my humble opinion on this is kind of looking at the situation from a different lens what kind of lens do we want to use for this Camilla humble lens well we're looking through it as a as a humble lens or I wouldn't say historical lens so let's look at it more as we should love her and it's easier to love your neighbors the daytime type of thing the problem is is as the rich get richer in California it creates that become authoritarian in my opinion and with all this money and pouring at the Silicon Valley this authoritarian as' they start to treat poor people like they don't matter or they don't exist anymore and this is creating a super super duper massive economic instability and in my opinion I've been talking about this for the last five six seven eight years that we are witnessing the destruction of the middle class and and and there and I keep saying real incomes haven't haven't come up since the 70s 80s real incomes yeah when you make two bucks an hour but you still pay your house off in five years so five six years your house was paid off and you had a car and you went to college on the side so that's what you did for two three bucks and I don't believe it that's how it worked in the 80s and the 70s but the problem is is it's almost like they're why the big two the biggest drive for this I think it's the destruction of currency I think it when the currency gets destroyed it starts to distort things and it rises the cost of living even faster in my opinion now myhead here so I'm just like tryin
