    “Third-World Country”: Actor Scott Baio Loving Move To Florida After Bailing On Democrat-Controlled California, “It’s Bad”

    By Todd PetersonMay 12, 2023

    Former “Happy Days” and “Charles in Charge” actor Scott Baio doubled down on his disgust with the state of California, telling Fox News’s Jesse Watters that in its present condition, it’s essentially a “third-world country.” What’s more, he saw no end to the descent into chaos since clueless voters continue voting for the people responsible for its decline

    Baio lamented to Watters about how he has watched Southern California become unrecognizable over his 45 years in the naturally beautiful area, saying that “between the homeless defecating on the sidewalk, doing drugs on the sidewalk in the middle of the day, illegal aliens all over the place, laws mean[ing] nothing, crime [being] out of control, graffiti on everything… I don’t know what [my tax dollars] go for.”

    “I’ve been in California a very, very long time,” he continued, “and it’s so sad to me. I’ve got family, and I’ve got friends there, and I didn’t want to leave, but I’ve been pretty much forced out.” 

    “I would vote for a Democrat if they were going to fix some of this stuff,” he told Watters. “I would. But I don’t think the other side would ever vote for a Republican to fix it. And, Jesse, I’m telling you, it’s bad.” 

    The same day as his appearance on Fox, Baio also retweeted a previous tweet of his that said, “Living our best life in Florida,” with a selfie of himself and his wife at a Florida beach.

    Scott Baio,  the 62-year-old actor and long-time resident of Los Angeles, just announced that he has had enough of California and so is going to leave it. Such is what he announced on Twitter, taking the same step as many who are sick of its left-wing politics, omnipresent crime, city-destroying homelessness, rampant lawlessness, and the grim future of the state as it slides into a quagmire of its own making.

    So, he’s taking his family out of there before it’s too late so that they can have a brighter life elsewhere. Posting about his decision on Twitter, Baio said:

    After 45 years, I’m making my way to finally “exit stage right” from California.

    “The most recent survey conducted by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority found approximately 69,000 people experiencing homelessness in L.A. County and 41,000 in the city in 2022.”

    He also said, when asked why he wouldn’t stay and try to help the state, “That’s like rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic!“

    He also said, in the context of homelessness in LA, “This brings down property value. Also no consequences for crime that is rampant, making things higher in price and it’s just not a safe place anymore. #ImFree”

    Baio is far from the only Hollywood personality to leave California as things get worse and worse. Actor Mark Wahlberg left for the sake of his family as well, saying, “It’s really giving the kids a chance to thrive,” Wahlberg went on to elaborate: “It just has the best of both worlds. I know a lot of people, when they think Las Vegas, they think the Strip. But just about 15, 20 minutes away, there’s a whole lot of other amazing areas that are all about family and community.”
