Joel Kotkin\xa0joins\xa0Brian Anderson\xa0to discuss California's\xa0economic performance\xa0since the Great Recession, the state's\xa0worsening\xa0housing crunch, and the impending departure of\xa0Governor Jerry Brown, who will leave office in January.\xa0After serving four terms (nonconsecutively) since the late\xa01970s,\xa0Brown\xa0is\xa0one of the longest-serving governors in American history.
While\xa0California\xa0has seen tremendous growth during Brown's tenure,\xa0the state\xa0has big problems: people are moving out in greater numbers than they're moving in, job creation outside of Silicon Valley is stagnant, and the state's housing costs are the highest in the country.
