California DMV ripped me out of my parts.

I've lived in CA. all my life, and I agree with you. It's the politics of those in charge. Cancerous, big city ideas continue to spread..
The rest of us 'good folk' don't like it much either.
Well I happen to be one of the ones who like it here in Calif. So here's the deal; instead of making yourself and everyone around you miserable, leave. I promise you you won't be missed. Oh, and by the way, I'm "good folk" as well.
