Oh, I wasn't talking about the roads, just that other states reallocate funds from their designated use, in that California is not special.

All the anti smokers and pro sueing tobacco company people are total tools to the nanny state. Complete morons. All that money to combat health effects of smoking and the government pissed it away on rent a friend BS. Smokers got shafted with higher prices (taxes).

How about the state Spends. Less. Money.Too obvious for those who think they have money to burn. They run on accounting principles of spend what you think you'll get next year. Looks like they need a reminder of the purpose of tax dollars.
Wonder if they even stop to think how this will impact the lower income and poor? To them, it's not measly.

All state-wide offices are currently held by Republicans. Both houses of the General Assembly have veto-proof Republican majorities. Clay & Cleaver represent black-majority districts, which, surprise, surprise vote for black democrats. Senator McCaskill basically picked her Republican opponent in the last election (Aikin) and waited for him to make a fatal blunder, which he obliged her by doing.
As for Governor Greitens, he ran and won as a Republican. His infidelity occurred when he was still a democrat, so according to democrat standards should be “nobody’s business” but his family’s.

“Let’s be more like Dimocrats and solve every problem with a tax increase!”
That’s an intellectually lazy approach.
