Maybe we could sell California back to Mexico??
They run it into the ground. Ahnuld bought them some time, but he can't do it alone without help from the legislature. And he won't get help from the legislature which is solidly gerrymandered Democratic, and would be Democratic in any event.
California liberals are the left of the left. The demographics are entirely skewed against Republicans and there's no scenario where that changes.
California is officially something like a cross between Europe and Mexico, and I expect to see more people bail for other parts of the country over the next two decades.
If anyone has a strategy for rescuing California, I'd love to hear it. I don't think it's possible during our lifetimes.
