Full title: California Runs Out Of Money Again, Comes Begging To Wall Street As Moody's Threatens To Go Nuclear On Muni Market

[beethoven]

Stop paying out money to illegals who have never contributed one dime and the problem would be solved. So many people want the government to take care of them. Talk about slavery. Obama has created one big plantation, and most of the “takers” are too ignorant to realize it.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Wall Street will give them the money, knowing they can come begging to the federal government (ie, us taxpayers) for a bailout when California defaults on the loan.

CA could open up for offshore drilling, cut all payments to illegals and have lots of new cash.

What a 'Kalifornia' bridge loan would look like if it was really a bridge!

California received a bridge loan? To where? Hawaii?

Gee, all last week I’ve been reading about how Brown has amazingly turned things around for CA and they’re on the road to prosperity. What happened?

[SpaceBar]

It’s like a drug addict family member contacting a distant relative that they never cared about to ask for money because they’ve alienated everyone else.

“The excuse: the potential upcoming government shutdown”

or, if you read the whole article- it’s at the bottom, that federal payments to California will not be made.

That’s the great part of holding out for real cuts- if no deal is made then cuts are automatic.

The retread liberal governor can’t solve a problem rooted in liberal policies? SHOCKA!

Hope CA’s 8/2/11 is a blast.

[Mind-numbed Robot]

Why doesn’t California embrace the new liberal economics? They have plenty of printing presses out there, why don’t they just print money like the fed does? Getting out of debt is easy.
