Need a scorecard

California is almost a Trillion in CALPERS obligation. The reality is CALPERS is only funded to less than 70%. The public sector has voted themselves immense raises with Firefighter leadership making well over $400K a year. One gets to retire at 50 in California and get paid 6 figures in retirement. This is paid for off the backs of the private sector as the pension plan is losing ground even with a stock market over the 40K mark. At some point, everything that is unsustainable will come crashing down. Just like they have kicked the can down the road for decades when it came to fire management, the CA legislators have done nothing to solve their retirement debt. They have simply kicked it down the road. It is state law that if the economy in CA goes seriously wrong, everything including infrastructure takes a back seat to paying CALPERs recipients.
If CA succeeds from the US, they most certainly will hurt their own states environment for business and the revenue it generates. We have seen a large amount of corporate money leave the state already not to mention many high earning taxpayers who have run and taken their revenue with them. There is no way CA can go it alone but watch some dumb democrats try.
This is going to be fascinating.

Secedes*

Solid Freudian slip tho.
 
That’s what I’ve been posting since their SoS approved the petition-gathering process.
I hope they vote to secede. Can I send money to a PAC supporting secession?
Over 40% of California is federal land, so they’d have to negotiate for those areas I suppose?
Immediate authoritarian government is my guess, too, since they wouldn’t have a pesky Bill of Rights to worry about.

A secular cult full of brain-dead idiots.

Without Reno, the Western Alliance will crumble within years. I'd go as far to say whoever controls Reno wins the war. Vegas, Spokane, Phoenix, Boise, these are nice aims, but Reno is really the heart of the battle. The Gates of the West, if you will.

Your poast was about what you imagine I'm thinking, Bernice. You think about me too much. It's not healthy.
Hey moron, you said there would be no winner in a secession scenario, which is absurd. I responded that a sane USA would just overtake the new country of California before China. There is no way it remains a sovereign nation. Secession is an aggressive act of war and if you do live in CA, welcome to being a US territory.
Did you forget what you posted, Margaret?
Didn’t you gals used to mock Sarah Palin for being a secessionist?
You got any younger Sarah Palins for me? I wanna do some work. Montana is calling.
