I guess it's because it has a collection of the richest companies in the world...but I figured the huge populations of India and Africa would be enough to make up for that

"who has more wealth: a continent of severely exploited people, or a state with a high concentration of people doing the exploiting? hmmmm, i wonder"


The vast majority of California's present wealth and velocity are due to intellectual property developed and expanded upon by Americans. Things like Google, Microsoft, etc. Even if these companies built their phones and computers in America, California would still be unbelievably wealthy because it is the pinnacle of modern human ingenuity.

Good point
