#1 Yup, it's bad here. Soon there won't be anyone left but public employees, illegals and the Argentine ants.

#3 Given the anti-business environment they've put in place don't expect any quick turn around. Once the doors close, it's easier to restart elsewhere. Punishing the productive and rewarding the non-productive will lead to this eventually.

#4 "Punishing the productive and rewarding the non-productive will lead to [high unemployment] eventually."

Too true, P2k.

Since punishing the productive and rewarding the non-productive is DemocRat default mode, one has to wonder where they think they're going to get all the money to reward the non-productive (including themselves) as they force fewer and fewer people to be productive.

Oh, wait - I know. They're going to get it off the Magic Money Tree™ out back just like they're sure everybody else does....

#5 Please just let the housing prices come back a little and watch how many of us bail. A lot of what's left are just itching to just ship as we have watched the democrats utterl destroy everything about California. Truly we have ruined paradise and I will be sad to leave. But this state is lost.

#6 NMBS - from what I've observed it would have to come back a LOT for some there to bail.

$500K for a 1,000 sq.ft. home in Compton, California? C'mon.
