Sinking Fast

For those of us stuck in California, there seems to be no end to the lunacy. It's no secret that the State has budget problems. We've had them for years and years.

We've had decades of the same. An inept government and voters who vote for everything under the sun. There's just NO money to pay for this.

Budget cuts, special elections, tax increases..... and more cuts, and more taxes, and more and more and more.... You get the idea. Nothing seems to work...

Hmmmmm.... Seems to me like California is headed for another first... Bankruptcy (no State's done that yet) - truth be told, we've been bankrupt for years. We just borrow and tax, pretending this is the solution to the mess and the road to prosperity.

Not this time (I hope). Who is the State going to tax? The growing number of unemployed? And borrow more? We've already got the lowest credit rating in the Nation, not to mention that just makes the problem worse.

Bailout? Heaven forbid! Why should the rest of the Nation pay for California's stupidity? They shouldn't!

California - time to take that first step and admit you have a problem and make the tough decisions that need to be made.

You've already thrown away the future for an entire generation, and in my book that's criminal.

Take heed America. Utopia ain't all it's cut out t be!
