Perhaps California would be just fine if they didn't sustain themselves by buying votes with handouts. It hurts having to pay those handouts now, doesn't it?
If your argument is that Democrat voters are poor, than shouldn't the Blue states be the ones who are receiving money from the Red states? I mean they have a higher percentage of Democratic voters (poor people). Shouldn't California be pulling money from Alabama and Mississippi since those states are filled with Republican voters (rich people)?

Remember that in the last Presidential election, voters who made over $100k a year voted in favor of Obama by a decent margin.

And I don't belong or support any party. Just posting statistics that point to your statement being wrong.
