About this episode
Bill Anderson discusses the factors contributing to California's decline, focusing on government entanglement in various sectors.
Bill Anderson offers a ground-level view of California's decline, arguing that the state's deep entanglement of government with water, energy, housing, and transportation has created a self-reinforcing system where every new crisis produces more regulation, more spending, and fewer productive citizens. Recorded in San Diego, California, on April 25, 2026.
