    The fact that their population is shrinking tends to say the opposite.

    I actually envy them because Florida gains roughly 1,000 people every day.

    So . . . you are upset that you saw an accurate label? I don't really get this snowflakey stuff.

    Prop 65. Almost everything is carcinogenic!

    Far from being upset I just think it's micromanagement in the extreme to have to put a warning label on everything.

    No one who is buying a bag of wood chips for their smoker that they might use two or even 6 bags a year is going to remotely possibly get cancer.

    Why? Maybe a warning label would help keep someone safe. I mean, if there were live electrical lines or pits of raw sewage around, I think they should be marked as such.

    So it's a minor annoyance?

    Something to consider is in CA it's not the homeless, illegals or gang banging criminals who are leaving, it's the people with $$$ who make up the tax base. A lot of people retire out of CA because of the cost of living there, but a lot of people AND companies are moving out because it's just too expensive and miserable to live and do business there.

    Yet a lot of companies are still based there, including Apple and Meta, and it still boasts one of the highest populations.

    All smoke is carcinogenic. There would be no reason to single out wood chips.

    I think we as a society should eliminate about half of the warning labels and let Darwin sort it out.

    Do you think we really need things like labels on pizza boxes that say remove from box before eating?

    You are contradicting yourself. If no one pays attention to those labels, how would removing them be letting "Darwin sort it out"? Make up your mind. Do you want to remove the labels because no one cares about them or do you want to remove them for the sake of social Darwinism? You can't have it both ways.

    At least we get to laugh when they have nowhere else to escape what they create.

    Sort this list by "per 1,000 residents"


    It is not a coincidence the overwhelming majority of highest per capita net losses are very blue.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lis...ories_by_net_migration#Net_domestic_migration

    Louisiana is 8th, with less per capita net migrants than DC, California, Illinois, New York, Hawaii (it's weather right?), and Massachusetts.

    Keep scolling down the list.

    The left can bury their head in the sand of they want, but it's pretty clear what the issue is.

    Well, as much as I hate too, in my day that's how many of the illegals were and still are transported too various parts of the countries DNC sanctuary or maybe I should say endearment states and cities..

    No offence intended, just trying to be factual ;)
