I leave you this fine evening with a column by Matthew Kaminski. Key paragraph:
California is in a French-like bind: unable to afford a welfare-type state, and unable to overhaul it. "The people say they want all these programs, then there's nothing they want to pay for," says Hector De La Torre, a Democratic assemblyman. "The schizophrenia in the legislature reflects the peoples'."
All hell will break loose if nonCalifornians are made to pay for Californians' stupidity.
