“Democrats are unwilling to deal with the deficit now?”...
And since when is that ever news?...
“could be”???
There’s is absolutely no doubt in my mind that it will be like years past, ABSOLUTELY bizarre and a failure.
What!?! I'm am glad I left CA when I did.
How is the state doing in paying its bills? The logical outcome would be that they pay late, forcing private companies to raise their prices. Is this happening?
One-stage is playing out now with students protesting increases in tuition. We can expect to see other groups protesting when other entitlements are reduced.
When the finality of the reductions sets in, some small proportion of the dis-entitled will resent their exclusion to the point of supporting further reductions. It may require reducing them to the point of starvation, but at some point they will stop looking to the public sector for support and will pray for employers to return to Kalifornia.
Only when the number of such people rises sufficiently will fiscal sanity reign again in Kalifornia.
First, raise taxes on the rich (meaning small businesses) and the rich corporations (those that remain, that is), and...
Second, spend billions on a really, really fast train from the Bay Area to San Diego, focusing initially on the wildly popular Madera to Fresno link, using out-of-state (and chinese) companies.
What could possibly go wrong?
