In my view, the states are “self selecting” into liberal (unsuccessful) and conservative (successful) categories.
Cali CapNTax should be a real help for Arizona, and perhaps Nevada.

Schwarzenegger was crazy to sign that, but smart to make it go into effect on Brown’s watch. Now Brown will have to either reverse it and take the heat from his own party, or go down with the ship.

How symbolic, how futile.
And the rain forests, always hungry for more carbon dioxide, are complaining.

Let’s give California back to Mexico. If they’ll take it.

Yeah, because one state can change the temperature of the globe. California is a joke of epic proportions. Why do I stay here?

Sounds like their cap and trade plan is working. Cap off any and all production and industry, and trade off all of the jobs and business to other states and countries. CARB is causing more damage to the enviroment than they’re fixing.

Let’s give California back to the Mexicans and New York back to the indians, then we can have a truly Red State—save for fguring out what the hell to do about Illinois.

The people of CA have no one to blame but themselves, we had the opportunity to shut this down via an initiative on the ballot and it lost, by a fairly wide margin too. Idiots! I live in a State populated by total and complete idiots! The only danger is that they’ll be packing up and moving to your State as soon as they’re finished destroying this one. Human terminates eating away at civilizations foundations.
To: Kaslin
The thing is that in California, nothing will change no matter how high the unemployment goes. Too many "Californians" just don't care, and they don't pay any attention to what goes on in Sacramento. Certainly not enough to understand the cause and effect of their electoral decisions. It's a state run by public employee union dictate and feel-good iniative enforced by party line voting in hopelessly gerrymandered districts. The band plays on...

We’ll have to figure out how to cleave off Chicagoland into the lake.
The balance of the state is very salvageable.
At least that’s how it looks from Indiana.

Doesn’t Cali have some really big mandatory budgets cuts coming if revenue fails to meet projections? Last I read revenue was way down so avoiding the cuts will not be possible. Gonna be lots of unhappy people in Cali as soon as those cuts go into effect.

Why? Why would they destroy themselves so completely? I mean, I know the commies run the place, but they live there too and they are crapping in their own well.

I visualize Californians swirling the toilet bowl while their politicians are reaching out to grab the flush handle one more time.

So, the original Occupy Wall Street was really Occupy California!
Now it makes sense.
