This is not new for CA and NY. Been doing it for decades.

Over the last 60 years NYS has lost almost half it's Congressional seats. And after the next census, bet we lose 1 to 2 more...

California may get there first, but the US
government's ability to fund the interest
on the national debt can't go on forever,
either.

As the rooster who discovered an ostrich egg
in the yard told the assembled hens,
"Ladies, I'm not telling you what to do.
I'm showing you what can be done."

"The economic situation in 1920 was grim. By that year unemployment had jumped from 4 percent to nearly 12 percent, and GNP declined 17 percent. No wonder, then, that Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover urged President Harding to consider an array of interventions to turn the economy around. Hoover was ignored.

"Instead of "fiscal stimulus," Harding cut the government's budget nearly in half between 1920 and 1922. The rest of Harding's approach was equally laissez-faire. Tax rates were slashed for all income groups. The national debt was reduced by one-third.

"By the late summer of 1921, signs of recovery were already visible. The following year, unemployment was back down to 6.7 percent and it was only 2.4 percent by 1923."

California has been aggressive in this manner for a long time. I moved out in 2003 and they still want me to pay. Because I had an insurance license in the state they think I earned money in the state and they want it.

Decades ago I was given a BS parking ticket in Newark NJ for an expired meter (it wasn’t even close to expired); I haven’t parked my car on the street there since. Their loss; my money goes elsewhere.

A cop in a real town explained to me that they issue them assuming you’d rather pay than miss a day of work fighting it - especially since you couldn’t prove anything at all about the meter.

These sh!tholes are having a hard time coming to terms with “life without white people”.

Here in NJ there have been news stories recently about how government workers are generally required to live in NJ; some get waivers for specific cases, but some get penalized. The problem is our capital is on the Delaware River - right across from lower-tax Pennsylvania.

Never mind taxing them when they retire so young; NJ wants to tax them while they are paying them wages.

The most disturbing trend I now see in NJ (and the whole NYC metro area) is the number of normals who are moving as soon as the last child finishes high school; they no longer wait until retirement - since they’d be worked until 80 years of age just to pay their tax bills. The borders will remain open as long as this situation persists; they won’t allow these abandoned areas to return to nature (too many government jobs at stake).

“These sh!tholes are having a hard time coming to terms with “life without white people”.”


That echoes something that I heard on some radio talk show a couple months back - the caller mentioned that there’s this film about a “day without Mexicans.” He said, “How about everyone else try a “day without Caucasians” and see how THAT works out. He mentioned that if the entire electrical grid didn’t shut down, it’d be a small miracle.

Which, of course, says not one single thing about the abilities or character of any particular person. What it does say is that whites, as a group, largely created this nation and largely maintain/improve it. Lots of exceptions to that generality exist on both sides. LOTS (starting with politicians, most of whom are white).

Many urban cores face “years without Caucasians” now; the shops are run by immigrants who risk their safety to rake in the public assistance dollars pissed away in those dumps, and whites are nowhere to be seen.

Newark NJ is desperately trying to get whites to re-settle the place, and getting no takers. They don’t want “diversity” - they want their disposable income.
