Goodbye, Golden State
So I am guessing California can now go completely nuts with "rich people's" money -- a trifecta of a Democratic Governor and Democratic super-majorities in both chambers of the legislature allows for just about anything. I am sure they will very, very shortly solve all of their budget deficits, and pensions, and schools, and all the rest, you just wait:
California voters made more history on election day, giving Democrats what appeared to be gains in Assembly and Senate races that would provide a two-thirds majority in both chambers. That’s enough to let them pass most legislation, including tax measures, without Republican cooperation. The last time the state’s legislature was controlled with a supermajority of the same party was in 1933
