Oh look, in January, California tied with Rhode Island for the highest unemployment rate in the country, at 9.8%.

Meanwhile, North Dakota...North Dakota... has an unemployment rate of 3.3%.

The difference? California and Rhode Island have hyper liberal, progressive governments, elected by voters who just want a taste of that sweet government spice, even if it's just enough to wet their lips.

Maybe one day the fools that vote for progressives will wake up, but by then the beautiful states they infect will be destroyed.
