Virtually throughout its history, and certainly in the 20th century,
California has been known as the place to go for dynamism and growth.
It did not become the richest, most populous, and most productive
state solely because of its weather and natural resources.

So it takes a lot to turn California around from growth to
contraction, from people moving into the state to a net exodus from
the state, from business moving into California to businesses leaving
California.

It takes some doing.

And the Left has done it.

[...]

- California’s state expenditures grew from $104 billion in 2003 to
$145 billion in 2008.
- California has the worst credit rating in the nation.
- California has the fourth highest unemployment rate in the nation,
9.3 percent -- higher even than the car manufacturing state of
Michigan.
- California has the second highest home foreclosure rate.
- California’s tax-paying middle class is leaving the state.
California’s net loss last year in state-to-state migration exceeded
every other state's. New York, another Left-run state, was second.
- Since 2000, California’s job growth rate -- which in the late 1970s
was many times higher than the national average -- has lagged behind
the national average by almost 20 percent.
- California has lost 25 percent of its industrial work force since
2001.

Gosh. Are you saying that moving a whole bunch of defense contractors
to Texas had a deleterious effect on Cali? Get out!

As afr as I'm concerned, let 'em leave. We grow food and make TV real
well. SF has the whole hig-tech thing. We got mountains. Screw the
rest of you.

============================================

That's what happens when a Dem Governor is recalled over a new car tax law
that wasn't even passed into law by fear mongering Repubs and is replaced by
an inexperiened foreigner/half-assed movie actor who worships a jackass like
Ronald Reagan and uses a racist clown like Pete Wilson as an advisor (the
shrimp repug whose spending on his pals got us into our mess).

And remember the best law you repug ever passed in California? The no
new taxes law, the one that eliminated California as a place to go for
research? Yeah, the law that has just been changed with very few
repug votes.

Every day, in every way you are making your selves into a minor party.

(OT) : The California State Economy - A Casualty
of the US Federal Government's Tax and Spend
Robbery of the Citizens of the State of California
.
California's US Senators and US Congressional
Delegation SUCKS BIG TIME : When it comes
to Balancing the US Federal Governments Taxation
from the State of California -and- the US Federal
Governments Spending back-to the State of California.
* California's US Senators and US Congressional
Delegation has Failed the US Federal Tax Paying
Citizens of California.
.
In the pre-Clinton Years the State of California
'received' $1.08 in US Federal Government
Spending {that's Plus Eight Cents + 8 ¢ } for
Every US Federal Government Tax Dollar that
was Collected in the State.
* The Present California US Senators and US
Congressional Delegation has Failed the US
Federal Tax Paying Citizens of California.
.
Now In-the-Age-of-Obama© the State of California
'received' only $0.78 Cents in US Federal Government
Spending {that's Minus 22 Cents - 22 ¢} for Every
US Federal Government Tax Dollar that is Collected
in the State.
* California's US Senators and US Congressional
Delegation has Short Changed the US Federal
Tax Paying Citizens of California.
.
This 22 Cent Short Fall for Every US Federal
Government Tax Dollar : Results in $50 Billion
Dollars of Federal Spending being Taken-Out
of the State of California which Results in $5
Billion Dollars of State Taxes Not Generated
within the State of California for a Decade or
More.
* California's US Senators and US Congressional
Delegation has allowed the US Federal Tax Paying
Citizens of California to be Ripped-Off by the US
Federal Government.
.
The US Federal Government is In-Fact Robbing
the Tax Paying People of State of California of
$50 Billion Dollars a Year of Capital Spending,
Business and Jobs; and the Elected US Senators
and US Congressional Delegation is Responsible.
.
President Barack 'Hussein' Obama Give The Good
Citizens of California Their Fair Share of Federal
Tax Revenue and Spending and STOP the Robbery
of Their US Federal Tax Dollars.

Dang Dave you are begining to sound like
one more simple minded partisan fools :
Blame Bush Blame Bush Blame Bush
-tip- It wasn't Bush # 1
-Tip- It wasn't Clinton
-TIP- It wasn't Bush # 2
CLUE - It was the two US Senators and the
collective US Congress Delegation form the
State of California who let California "Slip" 30%
in It's US Federal Government Spending from
the pre-Clinton Years to the Present Day.

Yeah to some degree the Base Realignment
and Closure (BRAC) had something to do with
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_Realignment_and_Closure
it -BUT- Spending is Spending and the State of
California has been short-changed around $50B
every Year for almost 2-Decades due to the
Failure to Represent the Citizens of the State
of California by the two US Senators and the
collective US Congress Delegation. That adds
up to a 'collective' $1T RIP-OFF [.]

How much does "Prohibition" cost the state?
Is it a good policy to take tax-payers off the street, corrupt the police
courts and house these people at tax payers expense to only release them
with a "mark" on their record, thereby driving them into the underground
economy to not pay taxes ever again?
Estimates of bringing $50 B if the weed is taxed.
Welcome centers might just be a growth industry?
And Obama is not going to waste resources of this "Crime" he's got
bigger problems.

Prohibition benefits the biggest growth (pun intended) industry in
California: the prison system. Dipshitzenegger needs to get control of
the prison system instead of being led around by it.

Maybe the all knowing 'Hollywood' types could talk
to the Iranians about allowing Freedom of Religion
in Iran for All Persons of Faith ? ? ?

Where they Execute {Kill} Non-Muslims for simply
practicing their Faith as a matter of the Islamic
Republic Government Policy and Law Enforcement.
