=== The Left's Exodus (02:58) ===

[00:00:00]  If Texas had California weather and California had Texas weather, the state would empty out.
[00:00:09]  Yeah, I think that would definitely...
[00:00:11]  No, I'm not joking.
[00:00:12]  There would be almost no one left in this state.
[00:00:15]  There was no other reason to be here.
[00:00:19]  Yeah.
[00:00:20]  That is what the left has done.
[00:00:22]  You know my motto, the left ruins everything it touches.
[00:00:25]  California is a perfect example.
[00:00:28]  Yeah, it definitely is.
[00:00:30]  The same is happening in my home state of Colorado.
[00:00:32]  That's right.
[00:00:33]  Well, but nobody's conscious of it because they're all high.
[00:00:38]  Yeah, that's also true.
[00:00:40]  I know that.
[00:00:41]  You know, what did I see?
[00:00:44]  You know, I'm in Colorado a lot.
[00:00:46]  I saw a bumper sticker, something to the effect of, now that you've gotten high, please leave, or something like that.
[00:00:54]  Are you familiar with that?
[00:00:56]  Yeah, there's tons of people from California and other states who are actually moving to Colorado, and they're destroying that state as well.
[00:01:03]  So, I mean, that's why it's important that you watch, if anyone listening needs to watch the documentary, you can go to PragerU.com to watch it.
[00:01:11]  It's important because we showcase how it's California that is affected by this.
[00:01:16]  But this could be your state in a matter of months.
[00:01:20]  With leftist policies.
[00:01:21]  A few leftist policies come in, minimum wage laws, business regulations, welfare spending, all these different things.
[00:01:27]  They can come in kind of sneakily and you don't even know.
[00:01:30]  And then, just like that, your state is destroyed and it's a leftist paradise.
[00:01:34]  The name again, folks, of the first time we have a documentary out at PragerU is called Fleeing California.
[00:01:41]  How many minutes is it?
[00:01:43]  It's just about 15 minutes.
[00:01:45]  Yeah, so we call it a mini-documentary.
[00:01:48]  But it certainly gets the message across.
[00:01:53]  You mentioned there, I wish there was another statistic, or I missed it.
[00:01:59]  You mentioned how many people in the last few years have left California.
[00:02:03]  I think 5 million.
[00:02:04]  Do you remember the number?
[00:02:06]  Yeah, so 5 million people in the last 10 years have left California.
[00:02:10]  600,000 of those moved to Texas.
[00:02:12]  And in California, 15,000 businesses have actually left the state as well.
[00:02:17]  So it's a lot of people.
[00:02:19]  Right.
[00:02:19]  But you didn't give the statistic, and I was dying to know it, how many people have moved to California in the last 10 years?
[00:02:28]  You know, I can't tell you exactly how much that is.
[00:02:32]  Yeah, we didn't include that statistic.
[00:02:33]  But I do believe that California is losing its population.
[00:02:37]  More people are starting to move out.
[00:02:38]  Right.
[00:02:38]  Also, it's not even a fair piece of data because the moving in includes illegal immigrants.

=== Will Witt's Terrific Moment (00:22) ===

[00:02:49]  Yeah, well, that totally offsets the population.
[00:02:51]  Yes, that's right.
[00:02:52]  So there may be a lot of people moving into California, but they're not U.S. citizens, generally speaking.
[00:02:59]  All right, we'll be back in a moment, a couple of more minutes, with Will Witt, who made this terrific, really terrific.
