California is a failed experiment.

You can find failed/failing/failing to implement infrastructure in every state in the US, it’s a national issue

Counterpoint: California residents would've blocked the Condo development using CEQA and it'd be a hybrid parking lot/homeless encampment. Checkmate indeed.

It's a good thing the Millennium Tower is still standing.

It’s not really a counterpoint when every place is fucked. I’m saying this from region that did the last mega engineering project in the US (the big dig) and that was even 20 years ago. We are one of the best areas for approving infrastructure projects and we still don’t approve enough to support the areas needs.

It is a national problem

Honestly, as a Californian; I see this positively. We need our butts kicked a bit to make progress. I want California to be the best place in the world. It’s trying hard to not be.
