The Hollywood star Dean Cain, who famously played Superman on the television show “Lois and Clark,” has just become the latest in a long line of Americans to flee the liberal state of California in search of a better life.
California ‘Policies Are Just Terrible’
“I love California. It’s the most beautiful state,” Cain, 56, explained to Fox News. “Everything’s wonderful about it except for the policies. The policies are just terrible. The fiscal policies, the soft-on-crime policies, the homelessness policies.”
“The things that our leaders in California have been doing have driven out anybody who can really afford to get out,” he continued. “People are flocking out of there in droves.”
Cain put his home in Malibu on the market back in March for $6.25 million, and it finally sold in May. He has since moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, and he’s already loving his life there.
“I’ve been here for two weeks now, and I can tell you, [it’s a] smart move… my son is ten times happier here in Las Vegas,” he said. “If I wanted to do anything out of Malibu, it took me 45 minutes to an hour to get anywhere. Here, the longest I’m driving is 20 minutes.”
Mark Wahlberg Leaves California
Another celebrity that has moved to Las Vegas is Mark Wahlberg, who also has no regrets about his decision.
“I moved to Nevada where, after this gubernatorial election, hopefully it will go to legislation and get a bill passed so we can get a tax credit for the state — build a state-of-the-art studio here and make this Hollywood 2.0,” he recently said.
Cain also believes that there is a “100%” chance of a new Hollywood being created in Nevada.
“Obviously, Mark Wahlberg is a huge star in and drives a huge number of dollars to the films that he does. Bless him for it. I think he’s done something very smart for his family,” he said. “Mark did a smart thing, and, hopefully, I believe I’ve done a very, very smart thing.”
Scott Baio Leaves California
The former “Happy Days” star Scott Baio also recently fled California to move to Florida due to rising homelessness and crime.
“I see people… When I drive with my kid, I gotta turn her head away. She’s 14 years old. I see people defecating on the sidewalk,” Baio lamented during a call with the Clay & Buck show. “You see people in parks shooting up. There’s people passed out everywhere. I mean it. It’s not the isolated. It’s all over the place. And I’m about ready to get out of the state. So, you know, just so you guys know, that it’s no joke out here.”
“I think, probably since Governor Newsom, it’s really gotten bad, and maybe a little before that. So, maybe four or five years ago,” he continued. “It’s just… It’s out of control, guys. Listen, I’ve been here for 45, almost 50 years. I’ve seen this place go from an absolute paradise into a cesspool…”
Daily Mail previously reported that an estimated 500,000 people left California between April 2020 and July 2022. If the liberal politicians running California don’t change their ways soon, they can only expect more people to leave just like Cain did.
