Small-business owners now join CEOs in proclaiming California a failed state for business. Politicians don't care.

[Huskrrrr]

Yep, we are sooo F’d.

CA is a failed state on a lot of fronts.

And, damn right its politicians don’t care... nor do enough voters out there, either.

Meanwhile California gets an A for being friendly to single parents by giving them government handouts. Sometimes an F isn’t a bad thing.

Meanwhile, the socialists are happy that their design is working so well in CA and IL.

This is only because the grading is so unfair. When fair standards are applied, like, mandates to recycle, use green energy, submit environmental impact statements, and so forth, CA comes out on top. You know, sort of like how the Brady Campaign judges states by their reasonable, sensible gun laws - making Washington, D.C. come out on top year after year for its sensible policies. /liberal

and the response of govt is:

“We don't care about you and your problems................” as my local mayor so eloquently said.

Karl Marx weighed in with an A+.

Amazing God-given bounty, pissed away by Communist bureaucrats.
