We need to push them all back out West, get South California declared independent, build a wall around the rest, and let it all collapse in on itself.T-Ravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10861218035729479354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-5312422583252511952011-10-18T18:05:32.441-04:002011-10-18T18:05:32.441-04:00Patti: The reason I said I take pride in Elton Ga...Patti: The reason I said I take pride in Elton Gallegly's co-sponsorship is not just that he is a California conservative. He was the mayor of Simi Valley who appointed me to the city planning commission. I still thought of myself as a moderate Democrat by that time, but he saw a budding conservative in his midst. He took a chance, and it worked. Together we eliminated several repressive city anti-business regulations that had been instituted by the previous administration. He's also a helluva nice guy.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-15115816535662069352011-10-18T18:00:36.607-04:002011-10-18T18:00:36.607-04:00T-Rav: Andrew has commented in the past about exp...T-Rav: Andrew has commented in the past about expatriate California liberals trying to re-make Colorado in California's image.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-54866479952636565762011-10-18T17:56:02.300-04:002011-10-18T17:56:02.300-04:00Most Texans love us some Lamar!

Little businesses you may have heard of such as Standard Oil, Levi-Strauss, the Pacific Stock Exchange, Bank of America, Peterbilt, Caterpillar, Southern Pacific Railroad, and yes, even Rice-A-Roni. Some moved to other locations in California, but most saw the trend and moved out of California entirely.<br /><br />I'm sure that most of them would have stayed if it hadn't been that they foresaw that some day, decades in the future, California businesses might have to suffer under the huge burden of E-Verify.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-46848896528296955442011-10-18T16:51:32.695-04:002011-10-18T16:51:32.695-04:00I would suggest that that Democratic rep concerned...I would suggest that that Democratic rep concerned about burdens on business go to San Fran (or probably a bunch of other places in the state) and see what businesses have to suffer under there because of regulations.

Illegals, the families of illegals and the open borders loons now comprise a substantial portion of the majority of California voters. A state which well elect and re-elect people like Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, Jerry Brown, and Dianne Feinstein will believe pretty much anything they're told. <br /><br />I'm waiting for their next scheme. Paying all those police officers is too great a burden on people and the economy, people need to be free, and crime is down anyway, so it's time to abolish the penal code and just let people do their own thing.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-69387488897353892512011-10-18T16:38:31.527-04:002011-10-18T16:38:31.527-04:00Andrew: Amen.

Business (that thing that creates jobs) in California is weighted-down with all the federal government burdens topped by a couple hundred more that the state and cities piles on, and yet these fools claim two minutes on a computer keyboard is too much of a burden. They can't even claim it's the straw that breaks the camel's back. That camel was swaybacked for years, and is now lying gasping on the ground with a broken spine.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-24701373044728041822011-10-18T16:34:58.186-04:002011-10-18T16:34:58.186-04:00since when did ludicrous arguments ever stop the l...since when did ludicrous arguments ever stop the left? I really hope this comes to pass and actually works. It is funny to see how the left (both sides actually) can take any topic and spin an argument that can "sound good" as a soundbite on the evening news.Tennessee Jedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10604275115906776992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-78705131799005922282011-10-18T16:17:27.002-04:002011-10-18T16:17:27.002-04:00How can this be an unnecessary burden on businesse...How can this be an unnecessary burden on businesses? It's not like it takes much to run a number. That's a ludicrous argument. Plus, when have these same people ever cared about how hard something is on business? They would impose MASSIVE paperwork requirements for the environment, civil rights, taxes, etc.... yet somehow it's too much to punch in a number and get a yes or no?<br /><br />This is exactly what I've come to expect of California, do something stupid and then lie about the reasons you did it.
