Davis's handling of the energy crisis is only part of the reason we are broke. CA, like the US, has a regressive tax policy based on workers. We lose a lot of jobs, as the nation has done, and guess what- we are broke. Its just that simple. Other big states have higher property taxes than CA so they are more insulated from economic shifts. Had Davis handled energy better, we would not be AS broke, but we'd still be broke.
