I once thought this type of madness would stop when the politicians realized that their states were losing population and growing poorer. It finally dawned on me that they just don’t care.
Elections have consequences....
...the people who are elected are only doing what the "voters" who actually go vote want them to do.
There are choices:
...work like hell to get the "voters" who actually go vote on your side...
....or suck it up and eat dirt...
...or leave California....
...or...(some other extraordinary redress)...
