California: A state filled with people too dumb to realize that the polticians they vote for are responsible for screwing them, and then whine about the same politicians they voted for and pass ballot initiative after ballot initiative.

Thankfully, we will NEVER have "rule by referendum" on a national level. We are a Republic folks, NOT A DEMOCRACY!

Thankfully, we will NEVER have "rule by referendum" on a national level."

And as a consequence, we will never have anything like California's tax limiting initiative, Proposition 13 (without which, home ownership would be just as impossible in California as it is in New York)
