Ted, > Like the article you ignored said, CA has become ungovernable because of its voters.

I love how you, the LATimes, and other liberal elitists blame the voters for not raising taxes on themselves.


You get the gov't for which you vote. Whose to blame for CA's predicament? The people who live in Nevada? Grow up. This whole mess is so tyically California......I could have written the script.

This is in a state with 11.2% unemployment. This is in a state with some of the highest tax rates in the nation.

My property taxes here are twice what I paid for the same valued house in California. I am not so sure your taxes are higher.

This is the reason why the liberal elitists are wrong.

I don't think there is a wrong or a right in this situation. Yesterday, Californians shot themselves in their collective feet. If that's what they wanted, that's what they got. I just hope no one else suffers the consequences. Unfortunately, California has a big impact on the national economy.

CA voters wanted the services they receive, but they don't want to PAY for the services. That's the problem in CA.

I think Arnold should just slap a surtax on Asians. Everybody knows they save money and pinch pennies. The rest of the CA taxpayers would probably go along. It's where the money is..
