We may have to start being more interested in our own winter

No, but we do have some odd ones on 'organics' and such.  I'm sure
someone can find something that sounds odd but it's probably because we

Part of the reason bacon has gotten so expensive is that California
has a law requiring humane treatment of pigs.  (More humane than
other states, anyway.)  Anybody who wants to sell bacon in California
must obey that law, even if the pigs are grown in Virginia.

 
California and New York seem to be the most advanced parts of the
country. The least redneck, the least Trump.
 

Both are profligate over-spenders, both are dens of fascism and group
think, both are shedding residents like fleas.

He's just butthurt that New York and California are donor states:
they pay more in federal tax than they receive in federal benefits,
unlike, say, West Virginia or Mississippi.
