lol Is that Facebook IPO SERIOUSLY going to put much of a dent in their budget shortfalls? CA is just like any of the countries in the Eurozone, only it would be one of the bigger ones.

In the state where they tax anything that moves.. I have to wonder. Did they raise them? Do they have a sales tax on things people need (food, shelter, clothing?)

Why are there still sane people in that state?

This guy Chiang should have studied the methods of his Soviet masters more closely: Just make up a phoney set of books and trust the Western media whores to pretend it is the truth. Then you're off the hook for another five years or so.
