With California’s Kamala Harris being inspired by what Gov. Gavin Newsom calls “The California Way,” nonpartisan California free-market think tank the Pacific Research Institute has released a new book giving Americans the facts and knowhow needed to stop bad California ideas from taking root nationally.
“The California Left Coast Survivor’s Guide: A Pacific Research Institute Handbook to Help the Rest of America Avoid Making a Wrong Left Turn” is now available at Amazon.com and other online booksellers. Visit this page to learn more.
Inspired by the handbooks that have prepared eager adventurers for years, “The California Left Coast Survivor’s Guide” provides lessons on how to survive the progressive wilderness creeping in from California, presented in a reader-friendly – often humorous and entertaining – format complete with dozens of illustrations that will inform and inspire readers.
The book covers topics ranging from crime and homelessness to green mandates, reparations and housing, and restrictions on worker freedom. It leverages PRI’s front row seat for 45 years to bad Sacramento policies to educate readers how to avoid Left Coast policy mistakes in their states and instead follow the path to prosperity through lower taxes, entrepreneurship, less red tape, and more opportunity for all.
“It is our hope that readers will learn from California’s mistakes and be inspired to help their states and communities avoid making a wrong left turn – instead making the case for market-based reforms,” said co-authors Kerry Jackson and Tim Anaya. “Our book is a warning for the rest of the country.”

I’m afraid the California psychology is going to spread like COVID-and infect us all.
One of the first symptoms was our poor public schools. The teacher unions were given greater importance than the teaching of young minds.
Civics, American History and Financial Economics (ie. applied common sense) was ignored.
What do we have to show for it: Hi crime and dystopian behavior, low esteem for our borders that once protected the integrity of the US, a debt that will either will send us towards the depths immediately or will wait a bit-so that our foreign adversaries can do it.
When we wave at each other in today’s climate we are actually shaking our fists or are waving-not “Hi”, but “Goodbye.”
