This Happens In Nevada Also

From Law Dog: Forbe's Magazine recently published their list of the Top 20 Most Miserable Cities in America.
 Out of sense of morbid curiosity, I paged through their presentation, and when I came to the end, the first thing that popped into my mind was: "Yet one more reason for my shadow to never, ever darken the borders of California."
Of the twenty cities listed, eight of them are in California.....
 California has eight out of the twenty, yet California is still held to be the ideal in certain social and political sectors.
"You should be more like California," they say, "California is enlightened!" "If it's good enough for California to do, it must be mandatory for you!"....
Huh. I hadn't ever considered that "Misery" might equal "Enlightenment" but that thought process might explain a great deal.
If it isn't bad enough that media and social pundits keep extolling the virtues of California, people fleeing California to my Fair State keep trying to make Texas into a carbon-copy of the misery they just left.
Why? Texas: None of the Top 20 Most Miserable Cities. California: majority shareholder in the Top 20 Most Miserable Cities. SO WHY THE HELL DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE TEXAS (Nevada)?!
Now I realize that California liberals fleeing their State couldn't get a clue if they smeared themselves with clue musk and did the clue mating dance in a field full of receptive clues at the height of the clue mating season, but here's to tilting at windmills:
California is doing something wrong. Texas is doing something right. Quit trying to turn Texas (Nevada) into a carbon-copy of California. Leave us the hell alone
Law Dog says what is going on in Nevada.  So many people have moved to Las Vegas from California and many of them want to transform Nevada into California.  We see it in our nanny politicians, home building, education, food, political correctness and law suits.
Thank you, Law Dog, for saying what most Nevadans who have lived here from for a long period of time are thinking.  Or those who moved here and have no intention of changing Nevada values.
