are you bipolar? I never attacked you... so why all the hostility? If you want to attack others on this forum then go somewhere else (like the UALPILOTSFORUM.COM)... we should be able to post responses regardless if you like them or not.

I would say California is like a liver: you can't live long without one....but you could get a transplant.

On the other hand, a liver can't live without a body (pun intentional).
California is like an appendix. Maybe like your tonsils and adenoids. You can pull that stuff out and you sure do breathe better.

Never said I did not slam California in my post... I'll definitely take credit for that. I'm from Hawaii which is probably the most liberal state next to CA... just saying that pie charts and graphs don't show the full info... just the info the writer is trying to push out. In other words... don't believe every news item you read.

I'll take that ejection and raise you solar power!!

We have a very symbiotic relationship. The politicians in Sac emit enough hot air, that they keep all the wind turbines moving. Thus free perpetual motion, and a booming economy without the rest of the union.

Gov Brown would then need to close the borders and build a wall and have Trump pay for it. Keep all those radical Nevadans out...

Bam!!

Rearrange that graph as a percentage of federal tax dollars paid per capita (or better yet, the percentage paid by population), then you'll see the fallacy in your argument.

What's that age old proverb . . . figures don't lie, but liars do figure . . .


California bashing . . . uh uh uh . . . . me too ...

I hate California . . .

I, for one, am glad to see the MEC being proactive regardless of the efficacy.

Do you liberal nuts actually still watch SNL? I mean, come on, John Belushi has been dead since 1982! Just like SNL (except for when Eddie Murphy did the James Brown hot tub thing).

I actually love California. It is the most beautiful and geographically diverse state in the USA. My father was born and lived in California in the 40s and 50s. Back when it truely was paradise. The freaks and communists infiltrated in the 60's and it's been a steep downhill slide. Unfortunately there are still a bunch of good people in CA who get out voted by the freaktards in San Fran and LA.

Much like Colorado is currently getting out voted by the front range.
