The cartoon (above) from one of my Facebook posts seems to have elicited quite a spirited response from a couple of my friends. I respect their affection for California. As nearly a 3rd generation Californian, I can’t help but care about its prospects as well. And its prospects are troubling. I don’t relish saying this. The situation is widely documented. Here’s a brief synopsis from the National Center for Policy Analysis: http://www.ncpa.org/sub/dpd/index.php?Article_ID=21859.
Also, below is a PBS “Intelligence Squared” debate on the topic. Take a seat, grab a cup of coffee, and view the debate. It’s fascinating.
