News came out today that California is going to have to cut up to $9 billion from its budget or be broke by March, leaving them with no money to run the government until April when a fresh load of taxes start coming in. The constitution in California makes each proposition have the power of a state constitutional amendment, essentially meaning that there’s a lot of waste which the government is legally bound to fund unless repealed. It’s a mess no one seems willing or able to take-on full force, so it’s especially ugly compared to other states.

We need to close our borders and start treating those who do not have the proper paper work (non-citizens) as criminals or in the terrorists case Enemy Combatants. California is broke partly because they refuse to deal with the illegal immigrants and as a nation we are slowly going broke for the same reason. More goes into both problems but as a Nation we have to start some place.
