A revenue surplus means, by definition, that they collect too many taxes.

Yet California has a massive 50% of all the homeless people in America. In addition to having by far the highest tax rates plus super high and fast rising crime and murder rates causing huge numbers of Californians to flee to Texas and other red states.

There's NO TALK on the unfunded liabilities that California faces... just the surplus.

Feb 28, 2021 - The California Pension system is way under water
and in dire need of reform. The state's unfunded pension and retirement liabilities approach $1 trillion, or roughly $80,000 for each taxpayer in the state.

If this is true then it is just validation of what was clear long ago. The democrat party HAS to go! Only the Pelosis and Newsomes of California will ever get that money and for free. Any regular californians will have to work for it. Bastards!

A couple billion applied to Thorium nuke power plants. Another couple billion applied to water desalination and pumping. A couple billion to build some extra prisons.
A couple billion in tax refunds.

Just making a few recommendations.
