How California is doomed, and COVID-19 killed it.

A list of shower thoughts...

• AB-5... those workers (Doordash, Uber, etc.) are going to be the unsung heroes of this and California stands adamantly in the way of their work.
• Water restrictions... haven't heard much from you guys on this, but with people having to cook, clean, and stay at home, 55 gallons a day may prove unworkable. 
  
• I am thinking of growing food instead of flowers - so xeroscaping (Orange County) with cactus just won't cut it.
• Reusable bags are like germ aircraft carriers - who the hell knows when (or if) they have ever been cleaned.  I know that I have never cleaned one.
• Plastic forks, spoons, knives, straws - almost outlawed but now they may literally be lifesaving.
  
• High density housing - now a thing here as a 'cure' for high home prices and homelessness.  Can you say germ factories?  One cough can infect an entire floor, one dirty elevator can infect an entire building.
• Mass transit (and not the high-speed train) - again, no social separation possible, just think of them as tubes of germs.
• Homeless - so much here, but I now think of them as roving factories of virus production. 
  
• Releasing of those in jail - 'justice involved individuals' now have a free ticket for the duration, and it will get ugly.
• School age kids (mine are HS junior and soph) will get a dose of home schooling, and that may end up hurting public school attendance.
• State budget - they tried to get so many bonds passed and it failed... luckily.  Pension costs never went away, though. With the income tax revenue taking a hit, how long before more taxes, more bonds, more squeezing of the middle class before they flee for cheaper lands?
• Unemployment - how long before those temporarily furloughed turns into unemployment in the long term?
  
• On-shoring will be a thing, but California has such a lousy business environment that it will happen out of state.  Coding jobs won't be in huge demand.  
  
• California feel good food regulations - eggs as an example - add cost and time and bureaucracy that slows speedy and efficient food production.  Farmers are over regulated and under watered.

I know I will have more later, but feel free to add on...
