Unions.
they need to buy my shovel that stands up by it’s self.
Pat. Pending...
Approach your local highway department.
Unions?
You bet, there are more unionized government employees in CA than exists in private sector CA...
Like much of the U.S. now, Californians are forced to pay the salaries and gold plated benefits/pensions for these union members.
Here in suburban Charlotte, we often run into retired government employees from Up North, people who retired in their 50s with generous pensions and full medical coverage.
Unfortunately for us, they tend to continue voting Democrat.
Half probably don’t even vote. They got theirs for life.
I hope you’re right.
Methinks all of that money that Jerry wants to spend on that train to nowhere could be better spent on a pipeline or desalinization plant
Note to V D H:
Time for you to read or re-read Atlas Shrugged....... I haven’t done so in about 3 years.. The next time will be my 15th time thru the book. I always get something new from each reading.
And when they cry about needing more money or they will have to lay off teachers and police officers, it’s because they need more money to pay pensions. I used to work for a PEU in CA, an eye opening experience.
Too bad to see what’s happening with the state. I was born and raised in, my opinion, the most beautiful part of the country. South Lake Tahoe. I went to school in Fresno. I moved out of Cali 15 years ago and started my own business. I would love to be back in the Sierra Nevadas but the last thing that state wants is a white business owner.
I go to the stores here and I REFUSE to buy a bag:
I have to carry all my grocery items, sorta like a Medieval European minstrel peasant guy from Monty Python’s Search for the Holy Grail, with stuff hanging off me and tumbling out of my arms.
Many, many guns you can’t buy here.
Most people don’t know that on LA County beaches it’s $100 fine for throwing a football or frisbee (dangerous).
I lived in Tahoe Keys and once instructed at Heavenly, swam at the Rec Pool, wow, small world!
Can't toss a frisbee at the beach? Blasphemy!
We might be better off cutting our losses and just giving California to Mexico. But be sure to put up a good stout fence around it.

I had a 5 year hiatus in range time and reloading while working that contract in San Diego. I'm back home in Idaho and making up for lost time. The indoor range in Idaho Falls just acquired an M2 50 BMG. You can rent it and fire it inside the range. My local indoor range is limited to handguns and .223. Outdoor...anything you want with a 500 yd max.
Check out the website for Guns n Gear. It's a 50 mile ride from my location, but seems to have some excellent facilities.
