Subject: (Ot) California Deficit
Yeah Yeah the Google Jockey can explain it away.
But someone on TMF years ago said - that importing poverty, and a march away from traditional family responsiblities will make the State responsible for things that the antiquated family unit USED to be responsible for. The same person warned that gloating over capital gains tax is equivalent to the 'cakewalk' in Iraq mentality. Typical Bushies these days lol.
And despite great gifts of creative people, coastlines, tourism, some of the largest, most greedy and profitable corporations, the California surplus that the snobs were crowing about, is rightfully gone.

"California is one of the only states to have a shortfall this year. That's mostly because its progressive tax code relies on wealthy taxpayers whose income is closely tied to the performance of the stock market."
Cmon, tent cities. Highest child poverty. This DESPITE all the money flowing.
A Liberal's Paradise indeed, Segregation and Gilded. California, New York, whatever - rinse and repeat.
