A view of the liberal future. |
California had gone from the best state in the Union to one of the worse. At the same time it moved from Conservative to Liberal. Union greed and willing Democrats completed the decline. Now the state starts to look more like Greece than America. If the other stated don’t understand how this came about they are doomed to follow. That is; if the Federal Government does not collapse first.

When private firms don’t provide good services, consumers have choices. When city governments fail to perform adequately because they have squandered their budgets, residents are left waiting, hoping, and eventually moving. As an elected supervisor in another beleaguered California county once opined: “County government is becoming a pension provider that provides government services on the side.†That’s true practically everywhere in the once Golden State. In Stockton, the results are plain to see.

There are three kind of liberals;
Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

When was California the "best state in the union?"

Stockton wasn't controlled just by democrats I don't think. It is not a very liberal city at all.

It's represented by all democrats and according to eopdunk.com a majority of people living in San Joaquin County voted for Bush 53% to Kerry's 46% and 55% for Obama to 44% for McCain, but that's the county not the city itself which I can't seem to find.

Edit: And only 64% of the eligible population is registered to vote of which 42% is democrat and 38% is republican.

Why do you keep bringing up this stanky red herring when it has been debunked the last few times you've thrown it out there? Both about the state overall, and a few specific munis you keep tossing out / weighing in on, like Stockton?
Is this the kneejerk Cali reaction? Toss out blatant crap and wait to see if you get called on it?
Isn't Cali your back yard? If you want *any* credibility beyond the goldfish gif, you really should have some clue about your own back yard.

Where do you get the data on that? I don't necessarily disbelieve you it's just sorta unexpected given it's a central valley city, and those are typically pretty conservative.

State voter registration website.
Here's the report on the county.

I was talking about who it's represented by, not voter registration.
You'd also have to look back over the past couple decades to get a good picture of who was responsible for the pension funding choices they made.
