"continue grow at least until 2020."

Why do all forecasts never include the next recession?

"It's possible I actually know more about what's going on in our state than you. I was alarmed by your original post, thinking I'd missed something, but then you clarified that you'd meant cities and made up the part about the state going bankrupt by a judges order."

Jim - I am not as wrong in my position re the state as you want to portray me. The whole union game is to make the states responsible for the "legal" obligations of their cities. That is clearly the game plan in Detroit. I sincerely ask you - if the cities in California are not allowed to implement the changes - who will pay the bills? Perhaps your game plan is to dump it up to the feds. As I have said - you guys can do whatever you chose - as long as you pay for it.

Think about it - no changes allowed - no money to pay the bills. How do you characterize such a situation?

Bob

Term limits are good. Most of our countries problems would not exist if we had term limits. The terms should be 6 years though, not 2 or 4 or 6.

He slashed state spending and rather than ramming tax increases down our throats, gave us voters a chance to choose between more cutting and slashing or a temporary tax. The voters, not I -- not Brown, chose the temporary tax.


A temporary tax in California, please tell me what of the new taxes that were passed are temporary?
