California [[Attorney General]] [[Kamala Harris]] refused to defend [[Proposition 8]] in court. The decision was significant. In 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that proponents of the measure did not have the legal standing to defend Proposition 8 on appeal after Harris and Gov. [[Jerry Brown]] had refused to do so. The case was dismissed on technical grounds, removing the ban on same-sex marriage in California and eroding the respect for marriage further there.<ref>https://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-senate-harris-milestones-20160706-snap-htmlstory.html</ref>

For well over a hundred years there was a popular saying, 'As goes California, so goes the nation.' By 2021 that future became clear: It is a high taxation society with a huge, impoverished, unemployed and unemployable destitute class where the [[middle class]] is annihilated, organized gangs and general chaotic street [[crime]] including muggings, [[rape]]s and [[murder]]s metastasize in all major urban areas and gangs more numerous and heavily armed than the police operate openly with impunity.<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/political/california-collapsing</ref>
