What's screws you CA people is the requirement that raising taxes takes a 2/3 vote in the legislature, more than Prop 13 - but it DOES prevent Prop 13 from being repealed.

I think things will have to get truly horrific in CA before anything can change there. Things will be cut, first the easy things, the regulatory agencies, the social services. But then, prisoners will be released, prisons closed, police cut, road maintenance cut - and on and on. Before long, the cuts will start to show. Crime will go out of control. The roads will be constant potholes. CA will start driving like MS.

Eventually, something truly bad will happen, like a nuclear accident at an uninspected San Onofre, a wildfire with not enough firefighters to put it out or an earthquake with no responders.

Because of irresponsible, selfish voters like you.
