If you could live anywhere in the US....

Tyler???

Texas and Colorado are out, wages just aren't there

I'm stuck on the left coast somewhere, only place RN's make money

[The Kraken]

Idaho........anywhere

I keep looking back at Idaho, Montana and Wyoming but the pay SUCKS!

I found a job last night with pay starting out between $23-29/hr, and I make mid 40's right now and am not looking to go backwards regardless of COL... There are hospitals in WA I can make closer to 50/hr plus have much cheaper COL like in Arlington, Bellingham or Leavenworth. I would love to move to Wyoming or Tyler Texas

I would think this would be an easy choice for you. Has to be a move to the south. U Don"t have to work, u collect all the handouts u want, and finally u can turn yourself into one of those big time republican that votes exactly like rich people want you too. Seems simple to me.

It's a HUGE problem. I use to live in Marina Del Rey. Loved the beach and ocean breeze. The weather was always perfect. But right down the street in Venice was a population of homeless. During the day, Venice beach was an eclectic, throwback to Woodstock but at night it turned into a homeless tent city haven. There's like 1,000 homeless people in Venice which is a very small city. Most of these people are young in their 20's that are either on drugs, have mental issues or just stopped taking responsibility in life. Years ago the homeless didn't cause much trouble but today they steal and rob. The police have to roam the streets to prevent crimes. Venice is like 2nd in the state for homeless people next to skid row. Crazy. The Marina is a bit sheltered because the sidewalk ends at Venice and starts back up I think in Manhattan beach.
Warm weather brings the homeless. San Diego has a bunch as well. A few years ago I was visiting a friend in Diego and I pull up in her carport and a guy was laying down in a sleeping bag. I asked her if she knew there was a guy laying in her driveway and she was like "oh, that's Tom, he comes here at night to sleep but leaves early in the morning. He showed up one night last year. He at least looks out for me." WTH???

That's it mac, that's exactly what happened at night. I try to tell people ab it here on the east and they don't believe the vibe. People are thinking a few bums or homeless disheveled individuals at best bc that's what they encounter in nyc but they don't know the tight knit society over there. And most guys think they would just get tough with a few bums but it's nothing like that over in cali unless ur looking to fight like 40 people

Man that sounds like that movie the Wanderers I believe it was called. Do they call that group the ducky boys?

This is pretty emblematic of the homeless problem in LA

Jaker ask him if he has any locks for today?

Bums on the West side really have the best setup of all bums in your country- Free food, lay on the beach all day, do nothing and just look at the chicks in bikinis on roller blades and bikes.
