>> what major cities in CA are teetering on the brink of bankruptcy?

Atwater, Azusa, Compton, Fresno, Hercules, Mammoth Lakes, Monrovia, Oakland, San Jose, and Vernon.


The only city of consequence on that list is Oakland which has a long history of financial problems and will continue to have them for the foreseeable future. San Jose has financial reserves but is experiencing a grown pension burden. The rest on your list are inconsequential.

In addition, there is East Greenbush, NY, Harrisburg, PA, Irvington, NJ, Newburgh, NY, Philly School District, Pontiac, MI, Providence RI, Riverdale, IL, Salem, NJ, Strafford County, NH, Taylor, MI, Vadnais Heights, MN, Wenatchee, WA, Woonsocket, RI.

You do realize at any given moment in time there are communities in financial trouble.

And these are the tip of a very large iceberg.


Your craziness scares me at times.

>> And just for the record, employment growth, percentage wise and in actual numbers, for CA metros far exceeds anything going on in Arkansas:


Right. But we aren't neck deep in debt

That's right. The concept of it takes spending money to make money flies right over your head.
