They also have the office of Chief Executive (Governor). They also own the Judicial branch. We now have a one party government in this State. Tyranny shall surely follow. ...... Oh, wait, it's already here. |

How long before California looks like Detroit? That is the future of demoncrap rule. The productive people will be leaving the state in record numbers. The illegals, the welfare parasites, the ultra rich and well paid govt employees are all that wil be left.

That Charlie Sheen does. The official news agency for CA is TMZ and there is no objectivity or professionalism left. There will be no reporting of truth as the media is complicit with the left. On a San Diego news station last week, the news anchor was giddy over Obama winning and couldn't hide his enthusiasm for "our" president San Diego used to be a "red" city not that long ago.
Now cap & trade starts, so kiss any job creators goodbye. Once Jerry Brown figures out that companies will just leave then the whole "green" agenda is going to be pushed harder down your average taxpayer's throat. $11 gas anyone? That includes the carbon offset tax. I'm sure if they do this, the gas pumps will be required to take EBT cards so we don't upset democratic voters. |

And conservative californians sat back & let it all happen! I know I was one of them, sadly! We just whined & cried about it instead of standing up and fighting for it! The only way you will ever get any freedoms back is with force now. Civil disobedience should be the slogan to live by in cali. My apologies gentlemen for not fighting for what I should have while I was living there. I have no excuse.

Looks like the first test of the new democrats super-majority is going to be vehicle license fees.
Democrats are hoping to TRIPLE the current fee. Strategically of course they were asked by Jerry Brown to hold off until AFTER the election to make such a proposal. |

Strategically of course they were asked by Jerry Brown to hold off until AFTER the election to make such a proposal. This is not the most brilliant idea. Already the media, in part, is talking about how messing with the vehicle license fees is what got Gray Davis in trouble. Hate to say it, as a 4th generation Californian, we are pretty much planning on moving out when we both retire. And we really love being in CA for the most part, but it appears that taxes are going to keep going up, and our apparently only grandchild and eldest son are staying in South Carolina. LA City Council decided to go for a city wides sales tax instead of a real estate sales tax. I can agree with the Real Estate guys that it would hurt (but probably not really stop too many) but taxing everybody in LA is only going to drive more business out of the city. They didn't figure it out when they decided to tax car sales and a lot of dealerships folded because they were no longer competitive? The whole damn state is going that way. |

The lack of jobs is tending to push me out of the State. The politics is, too. What amazes me (in a bad way) is how many middle-aged, white males are out of work in my area (as evidenced by seeing them out for walks and in grocery stores at times of day when they would normally be at work). |

Interesting, albeit depressing, reading about how Jerry Brown's Prop 30 won't do anything for education as sold. Instead it is shifting money to big banks like Bank of America to cover excessive borrowing and very bad financial decisions made by UC Boards of Regents, which were made up of these same people from big banks like Bank of America, Lehman Brothers, etc. Bank of America stands to make $28m just from a UCSF debt swap and the person making the decision to do the deal also serves on the BofA board. Sound fishy? So much for "it's for the kid's future and so schools don't get cuts". This is more of a bailout than anything else. The kids that did this study at Berkeley have some balls to take on the UC system, Jerry Brown, and the big banks. This kind of crap is what happens when society is an 11th place trophy society. California is beyond screwed. |

ED My feeling is as anyone who doesn't support their agenda...whatever you might be from a homeschooler to a dairy producer, you're pretty much toast in this state a few year's from now. It's time to leave and for anyone who can't leave, it's gonna suck....real bad until the state implodes Beglian, Greek or even Somalian style. |

ED I attended a luncheon with a very high level real estate executive this past week and prop 13 was on the list for discussion. Of this real estate fund's 500+ assets, only a dozen or so are in CA. Take this for what it's worth, but this gentleman predicted a repeal of prop 13 for commercial properties (office/industrial/retail/multifamily) but not for single family homes. Either way, the increase in property taxes for commercial property will increase the pass-thru expenses to tenants and owners in CA, making it more expensive to do business in Cali... bad news for business in the golden state. |

This state used to be proudly libertarian now it's quickly becoming a full blown welfare state. Looking at Nevada weapons laws I doubt neveda was ever "proudly libertarian" NV state laws prohibits the conceal carry of a fixed blade knife and prohibits the importation/manufacturing/transfer/possession of "switchblades". [NRS 202.350] Clark County (Las Vegas) prohibits the conceal carry of any knife with a blade length 3" or greater. [CCO 12.04.180] This includes pocket/folding knives. Nevada Revised Statue 202.350 1. Except as otherwise provided in this section and NRS 202.355 and 202.3653 to 202.369, inclusive, a person within this State shall not: (a) Manufacture or cause to be manufactured, or import into the State, or keep, offer or expose for sale, or give, lend or possess any knife which is made an integral part of a belt buckle or any instrument or weapon of the kind commonly known as a switchblade knife, blackjack, slungshot, billy, sand-club, sandbag or metal knuckles; (d) Carry concealed upon his or her person any: (2) Dirk, dagger or machete; (4) Knife which is made an integral part of a belt buckle. 8. As used in this section: (h) “Switchblade knife” means a spring-blade knife, snap-blade knife or any other knife having the appearance of a pocketknife, any blade of which is 2 or more inches long and which can be released automatically by a flick of a button, pressure on the handle or other mechanical device, or is released by any type of mechanism. The term does not include a knife which has a blade that is held in place by a spring if the blade does not have any type of automatic release. Clark County Ordinance 12.04.180 It is unlawful, within the unincorporated area of Clark County, for any person to carry upon his person a concealed weapon of any description, including a knife with a blade of three inches or more, a gun, pistol, revolver or other firearm, capable of being concealed, without first having received written permission therefor from the sheriff. |
