You’re kinda correct. These types exist everywhere, they tend to come to places like California, where they congregate in large numbers.
California didn’t originate this disease, we’re simply the first victim to fall to it. If you look at emigration numbers, people have been flocking to California from other states since the 90s, which is about the same time our politics took a nosedive.
I agree, what we are really seeing here is more of a amplification or concentration of that disease that is likely to a large degree a kind of instinctual and primitive impulse; people who have things they don't value because they didn't have to produce or work to create, are always generous with giving that away because there is no immediate or even potential cost.
That applies to everything from the generally good CA climate to profligate attitude towards money, just like how a trust fund baby is quite often generous with their inheritance or a lottery winner is with theirs.
Things will only ever change when we reconnect costs to benefits … where you pay the costs for giving away your money and opportunities', not others'.
