As long as the urban coastal areas keep growing, the number of illegal immigrants keeps increasing, and the unions maintain their stranglehold on the economy and statehouse, California is a lost cause. And when the Dems crazy policies don’t work it is because of (1)evil Republicans, (2) evil corporations and (3)they just didn’t spend enough money. It is never because the policy is wrong.
And there is your key to success. (R) national victories in 2012 sweep in more Tea Party, and the new Tea Party empowered president, like Reagan.
But unlike Reagan and the PATCO decert of 1981 this time it happens bigger and across more than one public entitiy -- and with the full-throttled backing of Congress -- the president with a stroke of a pen decertifies and disbands the existence of public employee service unions from garbage collectors to teachers. Congress then seals it as a matter of law.
The SEIU overplayed their hand with Obama. Everything the (D)'s promised will collapse. The now-taxpyer un-funded Public service pensions go belly up, and we who have long given up the hope of and even the need for a pension can welcome our formerly larded bretheren into the real world.
Wouldn't it be sweet -- starting with CA -- and the governor who did so much to promote the notion of public employee unions in the 1970's to have to eat crow and explain to all the pensioners why he won't pay?
Can even do it without the States declaring bankruptcy at that rate.
Let them eat cake, Jerry!
FReegards!
