Should it not be what has capitalism done to the west coast and the rest of the world.  20 years ago, a new car was 24k, and that same model now is 45k... 7 years ago CC max aprs were 19.99% now they top 30%...can't blame that on a one political party.

The problem isn’t the left or right. The problem is a combination of historical problems that never got fixed, a culture built on self-serving (damn near self destructive) principals, and good ole fashion greed.
