Don’t worry. Liberals are going to fix the California economy by massive tax raises.
You see, liberals have figured out that taxes should be Pavlovian; the more people are taxed, the more they get used to being taxed; and then ultimately the more they will start to like being taxed. Ultimately they will begin to drool uncontrollably before every April 15 in anticipation of being able to pay more taxes.
The only other thing California liberals have to do is frame their presentation in the same “Work will set you free” terms as their fellow socialists - the National Socialist German Workers’ Party - and the economy will really begin to take off.
Arbeit macht frei, dude...
