Link? Have fun. leginfo.ca.gov My only concern is that someone gets the wrong impression, buys a house thinking if everything goes to hell they'll still have a place to live, and don't pay any attention to things like usurious tax policies, which can kill you. Typical liberal blather. Always expect someone else to protect you. Ignorance and stupidity have always been punishable offenses. Always will be. As for the rest, as I said, start the revolution.

The Federal government increasingly resembles the corrupt British governments of the 1700s America rebelled against - notably Prime Ministers Robert Walpole 1721 and William Pitt the younger 1783 & 1804. Under these PMs government functions (such as prisons, police, tax collection and the military) were privatized ostensibly to control the burden on the crown. The resulting sweetheart contracts directed by lobbying and graft served primarily to loot the treasury. The end result was the England which Charles Dickens spent his career describing. Later PMs including Earl Grey 1830 and Robert Peel 1834 & 1841, founder of the police and post office, reversed these errors. Hopefully the US will not need to descend to levels of Dickens-esque social degeneration before turning back.
