Good. I’m glad somebody insists on doing it. I hate seeing our tax dollars being wasted on a hoax and scam.

Hey, go for it. That is the beauty of our political system. If a state wants to be stupid, they are allowed to be stupid.

Right now the Democrats own the state. There’s just no way of getting around it.

It’s like a city gone Potterville (from: It’s a Wonderful Christmas).

Sadly, we’ve got so many influences here other than what’s best for the state or the nation, that it’s just a nightmare.

As do I. What’s more, if there was a concerted effort from the GOP, Trump, and Californian’s in-state, it could be redeemed.

It’s like the GOPe just conceded it to the Left and has no interest at all in being competitive here.

Do we have a different ideology from the Left or not (at the top of the GOP)? Evidently NOT!

Steam coming from my ears...

CA will spend billions for the #FakeScience of Glowbull Worming but nothing for infrastructure and when their 200% snowpack melts and the floods begin Moonbeam will beg for Federal assistance to clean up his disaster.

NY State has become Appalachia, with a large city city that is the center of the American financialized empire, attached to it.

“This state could be so much more.”

It has been in the past. I grew up here in the 1950’s and 60’s when it was #1 by any measure. But now I’m getting too old to even think about it’s return before I’m done.

Unfortunately, the idiots in California influence what happens in the rest of the country because it is such a large market. Many companies have changed all their products to conform to CA laws, because it isn’t feasible to make different products for different markets. This is why we are all saddled with dishwasher detergents that don’t work as well as they used to.

[[It’s incredible how state governments are being subverted to waste their citizens’ resources.]]

I wish htere were a class action lawsuit against the states for stealing their citizen’s money for something they can not control!

I believe there are many folks longing for good values and a return to sanity.

People outwardly portray things different than our beliefs, but when push comes to shove they do often have a love of family and community.

If you can show them a way for their family and community be in a better situation, I think they would buy in.

If you offer jobs and a sense of accomplishment, achievement to many of them, they’d value it.

I know we see the worst come out of these communities, but there are also good people that come out of them.

I don’t think we’re capitalizing on the good folks there int the way we should be.

That turns things around. It can do so very quickly.

We don’t have anyone explaining to these people how they are being used and exploited.

When they wake up to it, the Democrat dominance ends.

I say we designate California and New York as Federal Landfills and treat them accordingly.

It’s their money. Or rather, it’s the money that they stole from THEIR taxpayers. Look for more successful enterprises to leave these rogue states.
