He has been re-elected in California with huge victory margins. Clearly the voters disagree with you.

Mr. Wahlman,

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.”

This is what has happened in CA. It didn’t use to be that way. People in this country can see what a shit hole CA has become under his “leadership”. Most people will not want to go down that same hole. If I am wrong then I will be the first to admit it.

Btw, the rest of that quote is worth reading, fwiw.
