"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Hey, have I ever told you guys how proud I am, to live in Illinois?
ReplyDeleteNo?
Good.
I used to live in Illinois, r-man. In Chicago, to be exact.
ReplyDeleteWith emphasis on used to. For good reason.
Deborah.... Yeah, that California model really works. Really. The number of bankrupt cities increases. Companies such as Amazon, Yahoo and Google are exiting. The companies that are benefiting are the moving and car rental companies. The gentleman at Penske to us there has been a considerable upward trend. The migration (read "flight") isn't exclusive to corporations and the so-called "rich". It's anyone with half a brain who is tired of ever increasing taxes.
ReplyDeleteJerry Brown doesn't have a surplus because he never had a plan. But the Dems, like the motion picture studios, have three sets of books. Also, it's like asking a communist supporter why they support it when communism has never succeeded. The response is, "We'll do it better."
It didnt't work in New York City. New Jersey, California, etc. But that never stopped the Dems from giving it the ol' Alinsky/Cloward-Piven try.
Thank God we are former Californians! God bless Texas!
