"California's share (32%) of the nation's welfare recipients has been soaring since Democrat legislators severely relaxed welfare rules and eligibility while hiking benefits around 2001. The result was as predictable for welfare as California's high taxes and heavy regulations have been for jobs and business."But hell... that's just part of the problem...
San Francisco, to use a simple example, employs at least 100 unionized workers who earn over $200,000 annually (including a $350,000 a year "Special Nurse").But who really cares, huh? It's just a tiny drop in the whole Democratic Party spend, spend, spend well.
Los Angeles has nearly 300 retirees earning over $100,000 a year.
California is an ominous preview into America's future.(h/t maggies farm)
Perhaps an enterprising progressive (or is that an oxymoron?) could explain why we should follow the Obama-Pelosi-Reid brain-trust into certain oblivion.
