jeez hurricane.

lets just say it has a big fooking economy.

According to The World Factbook published by the CIA, if California were an independent state, it would have had the tenth largest economy in the world in 2007

According to the California Legislative Analyst's Office, if California were an independent state, it would have had the eighth largest economy in the world.

According to the California Department of Finance, if California were an independent state, it would have had the seventh largest economy in the world

then why the fuck aren't the other 200 or whatever countries going up in flames
proberbly managing budgets better? Less Corruption? Leaders that are not former hollywood dorks and have more than 2 brain cells?

well, it's getting better especially since the republican party is turning against it's own governor and now starting to side with the democrats in over riding his vetoes and all his other crap...yeah it's great. Well, at least that's what I've heard.
Hopefully only three more years of college in this damned place.

One of the most liberal states in the toilet. Pity... Proof that their shit doesn't work.

maybe arnold should have thought about that when he had all those little private jet perks. fucker not only got private jets from his movie deals, but gets one because of his job. so, did he maybe say no to the state paid one? of course not. he had an empty one follow his state one in case that one had a mechanical issue or something. lol.

Ummm question for those in CA...

...whether there's a CA bailout or not...is anyone trying to get Arnie out of office? Or is the deficit not something he's responsible for?

Arnie did try via a special election and the voters stayed home, except for the union goons and teachers.

Year after year they have spent us into the red, and this time they have to deal with a collapsing tax base.

I really wish my wife would agree to leave this state because we are doomed.
