CALIF state deficit exceeds other 49 states combined

you are raising taxes and service fees
you are raising workmen comp costs
you are raising sales taxes

you have driven multitudes of businesses out of state
you have kept all burokrats intact in their jobs
you have fired thousands of teachers and policemen and firemen

you claim to have made progress on the deficit
all you have done is sold more state debt to investors who will lose on their new investments
CALIF IS MAKING ALL THE WRONG DECISIONS SO FAR

the fires will reduce business activity
they will increase state costs
they will reduce state revenues

next year will see an even worse state deficit
I see default is a given
I also see a new movement having started with RECALL whereby socialist state reps will be ousted, voters will gradually revolt further, and property tax reform will be rolled back
next up is civil unrest, demonstrations, and near riots
