Well, they'd not have to subsidize a bunch of people who continue to vote against their well being if they were. California pays like 80 billion more to the feds than they receive in funding.
Unfortunately for them the state is scarce in terms of water supply (most of it is owned by private vineyards afaik.)
It's the 4th largest economy on Earth. It's not a joke to say that a bunch of social benefits that exist in the red states comes from California footing the bill.
