"How has California created great wealth, taxed its residents heavily, and managed to still have failing services?" is a much more interesting question than the post's response ("The Left").
I'd love to see the conversation in comments, but I'd definitely encourage skipping the article and using other sources.
It's worrying that two of the most scalable industries on the planet, Hollywood and Silicon Valley, are there paying taxes (well, sometimes) and California's policies are still too expensive for it.

I’m tired of these policies being framed as left wing progressive. If they were progressive then the middle class wouldn’t have left, because progressive policies are designed to bring the poor into the middle class - not create the inequality extremities noted in the article.
Progressive policies are intended to bring the poor to the middle class, however they are designed to turn the middle class into the poor.
