New California Declares Independence From Rest Of State
[SACRAMENTO.CBSLOCAL] With the reading of their own version of a Declaration of Independence, founders of the state of New Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, took the first steps to what they hope will eventually lead to statehood.To be clear, they don’t want to leave the United States, just California. "Well, it’s been ungovernable for a long time. High taxes, education, you name it, and we’re rated around 48th or 50th from a business climate and standpoint in California," said founder Robert Paul Preston. The state of New California would incorporate most of the state’s rural counties, leaving the urban coastal counties to the current state of California. "There’s something wrong when you have a rural county such as this one, and you go down to Orange County which is mostly urban, and it has the same set of problems, and it happens because of how the state is being governed and taxed," Preston said.
