Victor Davis Hanson Tells Tucker Why California Is ‘America’s First Third-World State’

9:45 PM 06/17/2019 | Media Scott Morefield | Reporter

Historian Victor Davis Hanson described why he feels his home state of California is America’s first “Third World state” during a Monday night appearance on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
Hanson’s comments came after the state’s Democratic governor, Gavin Newsom, said that national Republicans will go “into the waste bin of history, the way Republicans of the ’90s [in California] have gone.”

Responding to host Tucker Carlson’s question about why he considers California a “Third World state,” Hanson pointed to “symptoms” we typically “associate with failed states” such as high taxes, poor schools, a super-rich class, and a significant percentage of its people below the poverty line.“We have the most billionaires of any state in nation and then we have the largest underclass,” he said, blaming in part the overturning of the “very popular” Proposition 187, which would have denied non-emergency healthcare to illegal immigrants.“That was unfortunately part of a perfect storm,” said Hanson, describing the millions of people who chose to move elsewhere over the next two decades.

Hanson then described the growth of “a very small but influential and wealthy manorial class” in Silicon Valley.“We’ve created a very a wealthy class that doesn’t mind high taxes because it has ways it can navigate around that and poor social circumstances,” he said. “And the people in between are sort of like peasants outside a medieval keep that can’t survive, and so they drift off. We are left with a sort of romanticized indigent class and the royal elite that doesn’t care about the vanishing middle class at all.”

If we look at Gavin Newsom or Dianne Feinstein or the former Senator Boxer and Nancy Pelosi, or Mark Zuckerberg or the architects of this system, they are all multi-millionaires. In some cases they are multi-billionaires. They feel good about being virtuous in the abstract. Meanwhile, on the ground level, we’re sort of like Constantinople or Justinian in the 6th century A.D.

Hanson juxtaposed the current high-speed rail controversy in the state with the influx of diseases and “140,000 people living on the streets.”
“Sort of like Road Warrior in the pre-modern world, where we dream of a post-modern high-speed rail system that will never be built,” said Hanson.
“It is a lot like ‘Road Warrior,'” said Tucker. “Funny you said that.”

​

PRESS RELEASE! August 5, 2019 RAN Action Fund, Inc., Erin Cruz and Proponents are moving to the next stage in the Recall Gavin Newsom process with the Secretary of State: Public Notice. On Thursday, August 1, 2019, Erin Cruz and RAN Action Fund, Inc., and proponents served Gavin Newsom with an Intent to Petition for Recall. August 2, 2019 we filed our Intent to Petition with the California Secretary of State. Updates can be found on our website ranaf.org. Click the "recall" tab. ### Read on for the full Update UPDATE Thursday, August 1, 2019 we served Gavin Newsom with an Intent to Petition for Recall. August 2, 2019 we filed our Intent to Petition with the California Secretary of State. We can not give up the fight. Our founder Erin Cruz stood along with you in the beginning of the year when you were calling for the removal of Gavin Newsom. We are not settling for second best. We don't listen to the naysayers. We jumped in despite those who said California isn't worth it. There were those who said a recall will cost too much money. We moved forward despite those who said the numbers are not there for a recall. We moved forward despite those who say they want California to fall farther so we can rescue her. -- We jumped in the fight for our children, and future generations of Americans. Erin Cruz is fighting for you. She started RAN Action Fund to help! In March, early in 2019, we served Gavin Newsom for the first time and we saw our Intent to Petitions KICKED by the California Secretary of State as they disqualified many signatures of our proponents, corruptly. This was not o.k.! We are in for the fight for our state! WE HAVE FILED AGAIN! Just this last Thursday we secured another Intent to Petition for recall on Gavin Newsom, filing the paperwork with the Secretary of State on Friday, August 2, 2019. There are still a few hurdles to go with the Secretary of State, but know that we won't stop. We can't do this alone. We need your help. We need you to be fierce, outspoken, and bold. We must remain united if we are going to win this non-partisan fight to take out Socialist Government. We will need a focused effort. That said, there are those out there attempting to undermine an effort we began 8 months ago! Don't let that happen. Stand firm! We currently have several coalitions who have joined our movement to help back up the Recall Gavin Now effort. We need more. We will also need strong support so we can get the ground game laid out and funded to gather the signatures needed in 160 days once our petition is approved. In just a few days you will see a firestorm of information about our recall. Help spread the word! There may be other "recalls" out there that are simply online petitions or underminers -- don't be fooled! We are the real deal! Look for RANaf.org or www.recallgavinnow.com -- Theses are to our OFFICIAL Recall Website and Secure Platform for organizing and volunteering. There is also a coalition out there, takecaback.org which is working with grassroots organizing. We want to thank all of the folks out there already stepping up, signing up to volunteer, moving to lead their county in petition gathering. God bless you. Don't stop. We will be right there with you, all the way, no matter how long it takes. Just like we promised, we are not letting this go.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT We can not do this without your help. Thank you again for all you do and being the change you want to see in your community!

Kind regards, Erin Cruz, Founder & CEO RAN Action Fund, Inc.
