And yet, I keep hearing from places like NPR that its all the taxpayers fault because of the ballot initiatives.

Cursed Voters!

As long as I don’t have to send them one thin dime....They have earned their spectacular failure.

Well NPR may be right in one instance - that stupid cap and tax initiative is making Boone Pickens rich - but destroying our economy - on top of everything else. And parents still cannot find out if their minor daughter is planning an abortion - but chickens’ right to a larger cage was voted in. What is wrong with people in this state? If my business had not flopped, I would have had my house paid for and could get out of here. I loved California - now I pray I can leave- would rather have the crummy weather in Texas or freeze in Alaska than live with a bunch of ex-hippies and communists
