The problem with your thinking is that it is rational.

The Left is insane and Newsom is at the head of the class.

Newsom is proud of destroying the government and economy of California because he is showing Lefties and commies (but I repeat myself) across the country what he will do to America if they will just elect him president.

Where did the budget surplus go? Probably the federal covid relief payola ran out.

The democrats and the news media operate in a post-truth environment. Everything they say is about winning the next news cycle. It signifies nothing in the real world and will be memory holed by the next news cyle.

When are democrap voters going to get really “woke” and realize the left has only one agenda: To destroy the country and their lives? Just what the hell do they think they are electing when nothing positive comes a democrap? “Well let’s give them one more chance...and another chance....and another and another and another”

Do I get reparations from modern Germans for forcing my Anglo ancestors out of modern day Germany in AD 5th century?

Do I get reparations from the Huns (Hungary claims to be their descendants) for forcing my Anglo ancestors out of modern day Denmark?

It will be. Every black in the country is going to move to California giving Republicans the opportunity to win every state in the union except for California.

BTW Trump is an exception to that call of greed because he is already wealthy.

Reminds me of when Steve Forbes was running and the mantra was "Too ugly to cheat, too rich to steal".

Maybe if enough blacks cross over the San Andreas Fault line, the problem areas on the coast will break off and capsize

..a proposal to dole out just under $360,000 per person to approximately 1.8 million Black Californians.

When this becomes law, expect the number of black Californians to surge over 18 million. The residency of this
influx will be conveniently verified by existing black households (each household getting a 'cut' from the new family members that they vouchsafe.)

$640 billion deficit? Try $6.4 trillion..

I’m sure they will put a cut off date as part of requirements. But the thing is, it will make it worse for Blacks. If it’s 300,000, it might be ok as they put it towards existing mortgages. But if it’s a million, some will buy a home and find they can’t afford property taxes and homeowners insurance which could end up a mess. If I were black, I’d hope this didn’t go through.

Virtue signaling is far more important than eating or drinking. You can’t have these white women in the Starbucks line feeling any white guilt.

Just wait till minorities blow through the money like most folks do when given massive handouts, and then scream and stomp their feet for more more more! No matter what amount you cave in and give them, it will never be enough!

This is Newsom’s scheme to buy votes without paying anything.

Scheme sounds like a Nancy Pelosi gimmick to get votes.

California has always been a free state without slavery. The only slaves were the Indians under the spaniards. What a bunch of morons.

This is all for show; yet another political show which is how California government, for the most part, functions.

California's Democrat/Communist regime has nearly bankrupted this once-wealthy state and, unlike the federal government, California cannot print money.

I expect that a token payment (somthing under $1000) will ultimately be extracted from taxpayers who never owned a slave in a vain attempt to quiet the tribal screams of the state's negroes who never were slaves. (An exception would be Elon Musk who, despite being "african-american" will not qualify because ... well ... you know.) This of course won't work as there is never enough to placate the crocodile tears of state-trained "victims" of some imaginary personal affront.

As an alternative to cash payments to this massive extortionist cult, the state could provide for a tax deduction on the "victim's" tax return (I suppose the recipient of the tax break would need to include a photo with a return ... I'm certain some unelected but powerful bureaucrat could come up with a tax form or a tax schedule to do so.) But of course this wouldn't work either because, again, ... well ... you know ... this would require a "victim" to be a productive, taxpaying citizen (and voter) of California to receive this newest "entitlement".
