They need to do two things in California: abolish the state income tax and abolish property taxes. That will really shrink state government AND make California an affordable place to live again. No more boom and bust cycling budgeting. With those two reforms in place, California could again be the Golden State.

I wouldn’t argue with that, but I would add that state commissions and the land grabbing environmentalist movements be defunded as well. The state and federal government pour money into these efforts and property rights suffer.

While you are at it get them to make the sun rise in the West. It's more achievable.

Excellent suggestion! End Welfare (aka state employees) and get out of my paycheck, Nunez et al.
