Thanks for posting this great link.

This replicates what was happening in Kali during our recession in the early 1990's.

Our younger son moved to Portland, Oregon in 1991. Budget Rentals wanted $1,000 if the truck was driven one way to Portland. We rented the truck for 4-5 days and returned it to Kali for about $300's.

At that time people were fleeing Kali to get out of the recession brought on by Willie Brown and his tax and spend days in the legislature.

In our fly club a few retired guys worked out great deals. They would fly to Portland, all expenses paid. They would drive back two vehicles or one truck and a trailer. They got paid, got meal expenses an overnight stay in a motel, and they fly fished down from Portland to the Bay Area or the Sac area. I may look into this when the warmer weather comes back.

The United Van's data is very scary. Those people leaving the state had good jobs and paid a lot of taxes.

The state budget was two months late, election day was fast approaching and they still had a gap of more than $10 billion to fill. Rather than confront the magnitude of that challenge, however, California's elected leaders resorted to budget tricks....

The politcians are like Pavlov's dogs salivating for votes at the sound of the election bell,
willing to do anything to save their sorry selves. The desperate politicans do their corrupt
budget tricks and the taxpayers are forced to pay, and pay, and pay, and pay...............

I TOLD you and everyone else... This IS Gray Davis' and the DEAD-END Demonicrat's "Smart Growth" (aka Reverse Growth) public policy!!! Rural cleansing, job suffocation as a solution, with no more infrastructure for energy or freeways and fiscal wreckage is how they intend to stop traffic congestion, urban sprawl and a host of myriad perceived "problems" within CA!!!

I hope I'm not the only one who understands this lucid scenario.

To them, Illegal Immigration is the solution, not the problem!!! It's all about their permanent empowerment with serfs and cheap labor, RULED BY THEM!!! It's TRANSPARENT!!!
