They should send a delegation to Bismarck to learn how adults deal with finances, taxes, OIL and the wealthy.

California is the Greece of this country.
What is scary is that the rest of us states will be called upon to “save” California.
This I will fight with every fiber of my body.

Linda’s Half-Mexican female side began to spread years ago. And that side has just kept on spreading. A shame for what she was in the mid ‘70’s.

The First Lady of Rock was once in the running for First Lady. She broke the mold, no kids.

John and Ken on KFI 640am report that Cali spends about 3 times more per state prisoner than Texas and Florida spend. Also, Cali has about 12% of the nation’s population, but about 30% of all the welfare recipients. Combine those two things with all the bloated salaries, pensions, and healthcare of all the state workers and you have a fiscal disaster around the corner!

I think you’ve got it. Just draft all the singers, musicians, actors, etc. from Hollywood and make them perform for free at performances for the public all year. Just charge the public a fee for watching based upon their weight, political preference, union status, green-ness, etc. Other than a slight inconvenience for the performers, the scheme should easily cover any “unexpected” shortfalls.

They should send a delegation to Bismarck to learn how adults deal with finances, taxes, OIL and the wealthy. They already sent one delegation to Texas to discover our secret to success, but when they went home, they immediately went right back to doing the same crap they've been doing for thirty-plus years now.
You see? Even solid, firsthand evidence doesn't penetrate liberal thinking.

It will be The Age of Aquarius. With, like, cannibalism. It has been said that after socialism comes communism....
