Yes indeed. Seen it all.

Or that you’re flying too low.

Bragging on California while ignoring that they ate deep In the red. They just had to take out 2 loans worth billions of dollars to pay Healthcare for illegals. California has a big economy mainly due to the size of the state but having to borrow billions show they are actually a drain in America.

Doesn't California heavily tax the athletes in their state as well?
Tennessee has zero state income tax
California has highest state income tax in the nation
Dude is about to get the worst rude awakening of his career not only going from an SEC playoff team to a B10 doormat but this is the earnings difference he will have in the process.
Assume he was getting $2.2M from TN this season. His after tax amount on that with zero state income tax would be $1.37M. Feds take $827k of that.
Assume he's getting exactly the same at UCLA (he wont be, much less in fact). His after tax amount drops to $1.12M. Even if he gets $1.5M it would turn into sub $800k in L.A.

If you haven’t noticed the US has been running at a huge deficit.

It's not a claim, California pumps the most money into the the American economy.
It's an undisputed fact.
I realize I'm dealing with simpletons here and just because I'm stating a fact doesn't make me left or right wing.
It's fun how you've completely ignored my actually knowledgeable rebuttals to this shallow-brained nonsense. You don't have the first clue what you're talking about.
The state of California would go completely broke without the rest of the USA. The rest of the USA would be just fine. You're essentially stating that we need California because a lot of items are shipped in to the USA through that state. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Somehow you don't understand it, but Gavin Newsome sure does. Did you see how he's suing the federal government to block Trump's tariffs? He isn't doing this because the USA needs California. He's doing it because their state economy is completely propped up by imports.

I just showed you the graph of how much they pump into the economy.
Stop reading to reply and read to understand what the man is trying to help your smooth brain comprehend: the California government doesn't produce jack shite - just like every other government. How much they tax Nico and others is of no effect - it's the people doing the work and who are getting taxed that are the contributors, not the state income tax.
It's a good thing you stick to the sports and not adult things like economics and policy.

Tennessee is exporting Nico and importing In-N-Out this year. Net gain, obviously
Given the way he was in and out of Tennessee, Nico would be a great In-N-Out spokesperson.

Greed always ends badly! Nico just set expectations that he can’t meet with this circus act. What an arrogant family this is. He will make excuses for why he isn’t successful at ucla and leave there. Kid is an overrated bust!!

Exactly what do you believe that does for you?

Are you one of those idiots who watches MSM and cheers for government?
And for the record, those numbers include people outside the state of California. My business is based in California, pays business taxes in California etc. I contribute to that economy, especially since I'm the one who designed and built the entire system that generates the revenue for my company.
Meanwhile, I live in Florida.

the state of California pumps 4.1 trillion dollars into Americas economy
Exactly what does this mean? How does any state "pump" money into the economy?
Does California own the Federal Reserve or have their own central bank I've never heard about? I imagine it would be much worse there if that was the case.

Educate yourself. Size of the economy has nothing to do with being broke.
