Hmmm….. Wilson, Schwarzenegger and =drum roll= Reagan were ‘running the state for years’ as governors. ‘Goofy’ indeed.

You mean that the Democrats that have been running the state for decades are engaging in “GOP economics”? Who knew?

To quote someone, “goofy.”

That is soooo appropriate! If you keep the culverts open they make a nice place to keep the allegators for extra protection. :-)

Makes me wonder how large the gate and electric fence is around the new Republic of Olerland is. LOL>>

Hmmm “Olerland” is a bit much even for me. We are,as I type this, having two 40 foot culverts put in so that we can have two twenty foot gates…and some pedestrian entry ways from 4th Street…the north side will probably have a 12 foot fence system because it will be the backbone of my Jupiter HF monitoring system and my Nav Spasur radar reception antenna…

The south side (4th street) will have Monica’s planter boxes along the perimeter. Good fences make good neighbors …RGO

If seen that system close up and still shudder when I think about it>>

that is only because you dont have a clue what you are talking about. Really from the Falcon second stage spinning out of control to goofy statements like this; you are prone to snap judgements and judgements which back up your preconceived ideological notions. Most of the time you have no idea what you are referencing.

I have more time dealing with the Air Traffic Control system in all levels…THIS FRACKEN WEEK then you have had in a lifetime.

You dont understand almost anything and are in all respects the Best of the GOP a troll who goes around without the benefit of an actual name; commenting on things you have no clue about. RGO

You realize that California legislature has been in democrat hands for generations and that its politics are dominated by them?

That is because there is insufficient tax base

California has the highest state income tax in the nation. It has been brought to its knees by $150K fireman who retire on disability at 50. Higher taxes will just lead to more capital flight, as they have in Maryland and Illinois. We have been begging you to learn about the Laffer Curve for 30 years. Please check it out.

social programs which are designed to help every American have a chance at the dream.

Tell that to the feral children of single mother households in Compton, brought to you by ruinous ‘social programs’. They dream of new sneakers.

did not run a superb air traffic control system and help keep the airlines honest as to regulations

If seen that system close up and still shudder when I think about it. That fact is superbly built planes fill our skies, and unionized charlatans in the FAA take the credit.

Oler. This was poorly argued even for you.

There is never enough money to support new projects, just an attempt to get people who already have funding to move from one state to another, which does nothing for the country as a whole. If the government, state or federal, is actually going to support space, it has to do it with tax dollars. But everyone with money wants tax cuts, and the people with money call the shots.
