Looking at the electoral map you can see that California has 55 electoral votes, New York 31, and Illinois 21. These states have some of the highest crime rates, worst educational systems, and billions in debt due to poor choices made over decades by your politicians. Yet most of the red states have brought their states back from the brink after the recession and are now seeing an uptick in jobs and revenue.

So why then is California still voting democratic? They have cities filing for bankruptcy, the public school system is a wreck, large businesses are fleeing the state due to relentless taxation and regulation, (see Comcast & Campbells Soup), and in all of their infinite wisdom, they brought back Jerry Brown, and have decided to build a high-speed rail that will cost $98.8 billion which frankly, you don’t have. Of course they do get federal dollars for the high-speed rail, but that is now MY money, going to a state that is in fiscal denial.

Why Californians? Why?
Is it that you have been so indoctrinated in liberal bullshit from grade school to college that you can’t see the forest for the trees? How can you as citizens side with politicians that have done nothing but raise taxes, implement ridiculous regulations, fail massively in the attempt to educate your kids, and watch large employers leave the state like rats jumping off a sinking ship, and at the same time, give themselves generous pensions and healthcare that are paid for by you the taxpayer. What is this blind loyalty?

Have you looked around at other states? Do you know that Texas, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, and Arizona are cleaning your clock and raiding your revenue pantry by welcoming your former businesses and the jobs/revenue that comes with them? In a perfect world everybody would be working and making hundreds of thousands a year, but this is the real world. Unicorns and fairy dust are not considered a reliable means of revenue. You can lean on that Hope & Change thing all you want, but like unicorns, it is not real.

So what are you hanging your fiscal hat on? What is the future generation, currently in grade school, going to do with the unsustainable and massive debt you have burdened them with by your head in the sand approach to your elected officials. This shit is not going to get better for you people.

You have 55 electoral votes, more than any state in the union, and you still vote for and idea that is currently destroying your state. And you put our country in peril because of that vote. Whichever political side gets the California vote, has the biggest foot in the door to the Whitehouse, and your continued blind faith in the democratic model, is threatening not just your state, but MY country as well. Wake up Californians, look at the electoral map and do some research. Look to the red states and see how their economies are doing compared to yours. Realize that you need to change your ways. Your weather may be beautiful but it will be hard to enjoy living in a cardboard box under the freeway.

 

Remember this guy? You people used to make good choices.
