I like living in CA. I like the weather mainly, but it is also usually fun to be on the cutting edge...or at least be near the cutting edge if not actually participating.
Unfortunately, the economic disaster and the Democratic controlled legislature, and special interest ballot measures fencing off money for individual activities which may be important, but maybe not as important as other things when there is no money left, are completely killing this state. You cannot spend your way out of an economic downturn. You can't just raise taxes on the perceived "rich" or they will have to go somewhere else. We are driving not only businesses, but citizens out of this state with our inept legislature and the special interests that pay to get them elected. The scary thing is that Nancy, Harry, and Barry are following this same procedure to drive the country right down into the Greater Depression, without letting the markets and economic principles work.
San Diego already has been screwed because of special interests and having to pay extraodinary pension fund obligations for the city union workers. California is spending money they don't have without any sort of control, and the Democrats are taking over American industry, because they think government knows best. Detroit tried this...it didn't work there, it didn't work in San Diego, CA is dying on the vine like a raisin, and now federally, we are going to just keep on spending.
I am going to Disneyland tomorrow. Maybe that will cheer me up...
