The death throes of California.

In the 80s we used to say that as goes California, so goes the Nation. Maybe it is true. If it is, we are in big trouble. A Bloomberg article details California's woes with compensation for public employees:

"Demographics is destiny" say Democrats and they have loaded California with third world people who have no inkling of sound government, fiscal responcibility and such. These people want "free" stuff from the state and the Democrats are all too eager to step in and give it to them. Leftists of all kinds, along with potheads now are the prominent forces of this once fertile and abundunt land known as California. Look at the hate-filled faces of Oakland's protesters (one of the pictures that accompanies the article), they are like the union thugs of Michigan and Wisconsin. As California sinks into unpayable debts, so does the Nation. It will be not long untill ethnic and union mobs will run wild in the street and just demand "free" stuff.
