California must have a death wish to elect an old fart socialist like Brown.
He’s the poison that will kill the state.

“California must have a death wish to elect an old fart socialist like Brown.

He, and Californians generally, are depending on the rest of us, forced by President Obama, to bail them out.

There is a nonsensical idea floating about that Californians deserve to be bailed out because they pay more in federal taxes than the federal government spends in or gives to California. This makes not sense. Federal spending is not based on insuring that each State receive in Federal expenditures how much money its citizens pay in Federal taxes.

If Californians, on retirement, leave their heavily taxed state and move to another, thus taking Federal Socialist Insecurity and Medicare funds with them, this does not mean that we need to bail out California!

No, sadly, when California is well and truly bankrupt, they’ll whine to the federal government for us to bail them out, and like the dutiful sheep they are, they’ll bail California out and stick the rest of us with the bill. When that day comes, the Republic will be well and truly dead.

THANK GOD ..... that Pelosi is not speaker when this state goes belly up.

California needs to lead the way on how to go bankrupt on its own dime.

I didn’t get to smoke dope and ride the surf board for the last 20 years. They did.
