I think it is impossible to get them under control. They have raised
spending 40% in the last 4 years, and we tossed the last Governor cause
he allowed spending to increase 39% under his 4 year watch. But the
Legislature keeps the spendthrifts in power as the control the
Gerrymandering.

It's called revolution. After all, didn't you guys initiate the tax
revolution with Proposition 13? :)

Prop 13 gutted the Calif. schools. Turned them from some of the best to
the worst in the nation.

It did not. The schools get about 50 % of the state tax revenue. The
Federal Dept. of Education and the state dept. of education changed the
schools. Elementary only gets one hour of science a week. The feel good
education and no child failed for not passing the class. That is what is
the worst.
