The root problem with CA, is the pay and retirement packages of Government workers, at all levels. They have stolen the wealth of productive Californians and now will take it out on the poor.
Another FReeper, whose name I forgot, crunched the numbers: IF Cali laid off or stopped paying EVERY state employee, they'd still be out of whack(over budget -costs- vs. revenue.) That's how bad they are.
Welfare and freebies are going to have to go.
