Can it compete?

I don't like earthquakes.

America is like a continent with 50 countries

Of course. It's the best place in the world.

Yes it's a known fact that Cali is as powerful as most other nations in the world.

Of course.

I've lived in California for my entire life and I've never felt an earthquake.

Folks from Cali are SO delusional I can't.

K

Yes. I read somewhere that California could be it's own country. So ofc it can compete with large countries.

Yeah, California is a bigger economy than most latin american, african, asian countries, it would to well as an independent state.

Yea OK

Why? If California were to be a independent state, it would be a 1st world country, bigger economy than most countries in the world, what's delusional about it?

Is Cali the place with all the smog?

YOU were probably sleeping. There's been 5 earthquake in the past 5 years 3 of those were big.

And you probably don't live in California.


Jk, but you do realize how big the state you live in is, right?

Wow, some people are pressed, I see. I'd rather have a few small earthquakes than bad weather, tornadoes, and tsunamis. America is too OP but if you single it out to just California, it's more fair

Yes, Cali I legendary and we are the best state, and would probably be a better country then most countries.


In N Out alone is better then anything that the rest of the world can offer

California is far from the best state. LA is a damn messT.

California's economy is large and diverse enough that it can hold it's own against other first world countries. No other state can really say the same, besides maybe New York.
