And Norm... All this bondage we're being sold into... Couldn't one call that "Strip Mining CA's Fiscal Futures?" (yes, I deliberately made that plural!)
The concept of "Diminishing Returns" is on the cusp of over-taking ALL of CA's governance as well as the future interests of business interests, both large and small!!!
We needed to "turn on a dime" after Davis and "drain the swamp!" Instead, we screwed around giving the leftist legislative allegators devastating amounts of leeway and "respect" and now, instead of turning around, we've turned to ETERNAL BONDAGE with TERMINAL STUPIDITY!!!
It doesn't do any good to "be nice" and suppress criticism when it's earned and deserved by either Party's Governor/Legislators!!!
There are very few current members of the CA State Assembly and Senate who are not without blame on their heads and egg on their faces... very few.
And the solution that keeps getting proposed by both parties unfortunately, is to borrow more money (in lieu of more taxaton, which is actually now being pushed down to local governments and state institutions to impose new taxes and fees), keep siphoning off road and infrastructure funds for general fund purposes.
That is neither responsible or wise government,, and those who continue to perpetuate it are committing criminal acts, imo.
