Icebergs Dead Ahead!
And there arent enough boats!
Yeah but just think of all the “cheap” labor they’ve got.
LMAO. There’s an obvious solution here. What do families do when they run out of lenders to give them $? They FREAKING stop spending.
Screw the idea of the US taxpayer having to fork over even more $ to pay for the socialist utopias in Cali, Massachusetts, and New York.
Our Mexical Senate and Assembly are like kids in a candy store. Throw the bums out! However this is California and the libs will vote these jerks back into office.
look at what unions have done to the big 3 auto makers
and then think what gov jerry brown did to this state:
he made all state employees union members.
the police and sheriffs don’t do much. the prison union are thugs.
the public schools are in shambles. in my valley 97% of the entering commmunity college students require remedial math and english.
then there’s the leftist judges,
the trial lawyers,
the hollywood and silicon valley leftists,
the health care for the illegals and section 8’s,
...
who cares?
there is no republican party to speak of.
There are a lot of rich liberals in California. Tax them.
Cut services to illegals you frickin’ MORONS!
Good God, what will it take for them to understand?
This state, or this nation, for that matter, cannot
continue to pay the freight for these people.
Here’s a suggestion for California. Everything is free for everyone, including those here illegally and let the feds pay for it. Then we can disband the legislature, the gov’s office, and just hire more bureaucrats to pass out bennies.
I hope Arnold has lots of fun with his new-found liberal friends.
QUICK! Time to go after climate change, the spotted owl, Y2K, and global warming.
The LA Times says, "The federal government pays $315 million of [a health] program's $432-million annual cost. Because those federal funds can be spent only on legal residents, California picks up the tab for the services to undocumented immigrants." (Dispute imperils California family planning program for the poor The state could incur millions in costs because of dispute with Bush administration over how it counts illegal immigrants in the successful service. By Jordan Rau, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer October 3, 2008 )
Why is it so hard to understand that you cannot continue to spend more than you make?
We don’t insist our governments follow the simplest law of finance.
The politicians are not worried about it...... our children will pay for it. How American is that?
Dedicated funds leave $2B Texas budget surplus:
Looks like Texas had a surplus as of May 2008 - and we have no state income tax (just sales tax). They even have a rainy day fund of $5.7 billion.
And no, CA, MA, and NY - you can NOT borrow it...unless the interest rate is 25%, lol...
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Like we didn’t know this already.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Californicate is doomed. I should know. I live there. I was born there. I’ve lived my entire life there and the state is doomed. The ignoramus illiterati of the electorate has voted in communist dingbat legislators for so many decades now, that there is no saving the state. The communist pols dole out entitlements to the idiot electorate that votes them back in. Scrub. Rinse. Repeat.
California is dooooooomed. The very day I retire, I am fleeing for the green hills of Virginia, assuming the Bolshevik beltway bastards haven’t ruined that state by the year 2020.
Maybe the feds could sell the state to Arizona. Of course, Nevada would probably make a better offer and end up getting sued.
