Never attribute to malice or stupidity what can be adequately explained by 
Skinner. By California, I presume you mean the southern 2/3 of the 100? mile 
wide coastal strip, since that is the only part ever seen in the media? The 
solution to most of the woes in that area is to move 1/3 to 1/2 the people 
elsewhere, like 200 miles inland. The coast would quicky revert to the 
paradise it once was. The road network on the coast, and people's social 
interaction tolerance levels, are simply beyond their carrying capacity. 
Most overcrowded high-cost areas suffer from the same problems as the 
SD-LA-SF strip. Just too damn many people. Sometimes I think that all the 
really pretty geograpic areas, at least those where the climate and number 
of jobs are at acceptable levels, are full. Or is it just that the areas 
that are NOT full know what a good thing they have, and go out of their way 
to stay invisible?

Only half a :^)
