The CA situation reminds me of watching a slow-motion film of an automotive crash test. Very slowly, the distance between the front bumper and the wall decreases and decreases. Then there is that moment of impact, and you see the bumper crumple, the shock waves ripple across the hood until the windshield shatters, the body rises, then falls back on the suspension, the air bag blows, maybe the side window shatters, and in the end you have something that’s fit to be hauled off to a scrap yard.

I say bring it on. I could care less what happens. And I live here.

I just hope all the rest of us learn a really abiding lesson from all this. If we stay uninvolved, it really can get *this* bad.

There seems to be a general assumption in the average American that people like Bernie Madoff only exist in the private sector. The government is full of this same type, except they also get to write the rules.

I agree 100% and I also live here.

Things just haven’t gotten bad enough for them to pull the plug on the big programs, amnesty and protections for illegals, and ridiculous impediments to a healthy business climate yet. More middle and upper class people need to flee the state before Sacramento really gets serious.
