Can I buy some of those IOUs California is issuing



Sure, just buy California municipal bonds and you won't have to pay
federal taxes on any of your profits.



It was predictable that the citizens of California would "proposition"
themselves into bankruptcy after the process virtually eliminated the
abilities of the governor and the legislature to raise the revenues
dictated by the ballot initiatives.


Sounds like the people of California decided to stop letting their
legislature and Governor rob them blind.
