With the arrival of midnight tonight I become a citizen of the state of Nevada, a free man from California's antics. I look at the good points - I can buy guns normally, my vote might actually count a little, and my taxes are going to not really change cause I don't pay much anyway (little income). I still have a residence in CA, still live there "most" of the time, but have declared my home in rural NW Nevada my primary residence and will live there as much as I can. Soon I'll be able to get my NV drivers license and all will be right with the world :)

This is for all you guys that kept telling me to move. Sorry the old guy (I am) couldn't build the house any faster and couldn't get through the paper work hassles of state change any quicker. The house was done in May and I still couldn't get this done until tomorrow.

Oh one last thing: SCREW YOU CA :) I'm out.

Just a heads up from my experience of escaping California. The CA DMV pursued me for auto registration on my vehicles even though I didn't live in California. The sent a bill collector after me for registration because they said that it had lapsed and not been renewed. I explained to them that I didn't renew because I no longer lived in the state and the commute from Minnesota was a bit much. They didn't believe me and it took several weeks before I finally cleared it up. Also make sure any business licenses are closed because I had the State of California come after me for back taxes stating since I had a business license, I must still be working there. Once again I explained that the commute from Minnesota was a bit extreme and I lived in Minnesota full time. Once again, several weeks to prove I no longer was a resident of CA and several more months to clear my credit report for the fraudulent claim for taxes.

Yeah I had that pleasure on the business license in 09 when I closed it and layed everyone off. They threatened to sue me for the 2010 license I must have just overlooked and didn't pay for. Fortunately we kept good records of the termination of the corp and all. I have land leased in NV to local farmers and they wanted to tax me in that income too. No more of that crapola either.

Good news!
Don't let the first taste of freedom get away without savoring it! Breathe deep! Strap on a gun and walk around your property!

The amazing part, not so amazing since it's California, is they'll come after you for things like you mentioned, but you can be a dead beat dad like my wife's ex-husband and California will basically give you asylum. My wife's case worker called Support Enforcement in California, attempting to garnish his wages for back support (nearly $20k at this point) and was literally told to "**** off", there wasn't anything they could do because of cuts and hung up.

My thoughts on California; That bitch can burn to the ground, fall into the ocean, and humanity will be better for it.

Good for you, bad for me. One less right thinking voter. I wish you well.
You'll never have enough right thinking voters to counter act the major metropolitan areas in Ca. We have the same issue in NY the majority of voters are in NYC so they end up setting policy in NYS, it sucks but there's not much that can be done about it. I'd love to leave NY but that's just not feasible right now, a few more years and I can get out and stay I hope.
