California nightmarein'...

Will California become America's first failed state? | World news | The Observer

Quote:
Los Angeles, 2009: California may be the eighth largest economy in the world, but its state staff are being paid in IOUs, unemployment is at its highest in 70 years, and teachers are on hunger strike. So what has gone so catastrophically wrong?
When will these freaks utilize the resources they posses AND fix their main problems?

START SELLING YOUR OIL, idiots!

My thought, my hope for Cali is that desperate times will call for desperate measures. This is identical to GM;

Do they make the changes they MUST make to fix the core problems or do they get bailed out?

By reopening up their natural resources for exploitation, it repairs the foundation of the strength of the state, of any state.

I'm thinking self interest may yet trump boutique ideology.

Right. However, at the end of the day, are these people going to dig in and give up education subsidies, government labor subsidies, are they going to get a hair get and get a job when they can still sleep in an party by simply selling a little oil?

I don't think so ....


from what I have read, all the folks ( small business owners ) with a 1/4 brain have seen the writing and book over the border in to Nevada


leaving a higher concentration of Granola Leftists and Poliwood Elitists that believe their own BS ....


IMHO - Obama - Nation will bail them out somehow

California is a cancer ,Obama Lymphoma, that is Matasticising all across America.

Its in the lymph glands and spreading like a wildfire to kill the whole body of the United States. We need a radical surgery in 2010 to neuter the disease, and then the chemotherapy of Conservatism to save us.

If we dont get it America is going down the tubes.

That's right. However, sooner or later they're going to find the state ATM card, so to speak.

And use it.
