For the past nearly 40 years, I have watched California fall from the NUMBER ONE position in all important measures amongst the states. I recall, back in the early seventies of reading headlines about the governor and legislature (both conservative) fighting about how to RETURN a billion dollar tax surplus to the taxpayers!!!!

Best schools, best government, no debt, job and high tech center for the nation, and a demographic of REAL CITIZENS, and reasonable taxation and regulation.

Sad situation now. A liberal dung heap of financial disaster, demographic disaster, and key employers and people leaving the state like never before. And the libs just want to raise taxes and regulate more. Well the electorate asked for it and they got it in the last election. More of the same — the illegals are happy with the New Mexico in Los Angeles, state running out of water, and business in the tank.

Stupid is, as stupid does. Thank You Jerry Gump.

Agreed. I was born in California years ago and have witnessed its degeneration.
