Part of the overall problem is getting a budget passed. Tyranny of the minority. We've reached the point where you can't be re-elected as an R if you go along with the (R) gov and the Dems. You might even get recalled

Okay. We know that things are crazy and have gotten pretty extreme. What do you see happening going forward, keeping in mind you live in the better half of the state......where things are not deteriorating or at least, not as fast as in the South? Do you see the state simply limping along like it is now.....or that they really pull off this revamping of the state constitution......or do you envision a crisis like Chris has suggested which ends up knocking some sense into people's heads? Just curious.

WR, > People will always vote to cut their own taxes. And bitch when their house burns down cuz of a runaway wildfire.

LOL, I remember Ah-nuld saying he'd have to cut firefighters if the propositions from last week didn't pass.

Ted might buy the scare tactic, but the CA voters sure didn't.
