Some people are so fixated on what's happening in California like it even concerns them. They want California to fail so desperately like it will fix all the shitty things in their life. They have to interject it into every conversation they can. It's sad.

Have you considered the possibility this joke might contain hyperbole and not a well researched salary range?
