What stops you from moving to another state ??

Born and raised here in Ca. I've lived in the same county all my life (51yrs). I don't like most of the people, the politics, traffic. I have a good job w/benefits, and still live paycheck to paycheck (my own fault, not California's). I couldn't imagine not living here. I like the weather, except for 100* summers. I love the fact that I can be in the mountains, or beach or desert in a matter of 1-3 hrs. Would I like the slower pace of the mid-west? Or the quiet solitude of the Smokey Mountains? Absolutely! But California is my home and like it or not it's where I'm staying. Unless California succeeds from the Union, then I'm out! I'm an American first! Just my 2 cents.
