The "surplus" was based primarily on the money the state got from the Feds for Covid. Need a more PC term for how the state manages their budget.RaceBannon said:California faces a projected budget deficit of $22.5 billion for the coming fiscal year, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday, just days into his second term. It’s a sharp turnaround from last year’s $98 billion surplus.
The deficit, while unsurprising, could signal the end of a decade’s worth of economic growth in the nation’s most populous state.
Newsom, a Democrat, is proposing to close the hole by delaying spending in some areas and changing how others are funded. His budget appears to avoid significant cuts to most major programs, although it does lower proposed spending on climate change initiatives by about $6 billion. The state hopes to restore that spending in 2024 or offset it with federal money.
Among his climate maneuvers: He’ll shift $4.3 billon in spending on zero-emission vehicles from the state’s taxpayer-funded general fund to a special fund paid into by polluters. He’s also delaying by a year $3.1 billion in climate and transportation funding.
So Newsom the great blew an alleged 98 billion surplus into a 22.5 billion loss in one year. One wonders if the surplus was bullshit.
Clearly the fiscally responsible choice
Note that green bull shit is on the block because the Feds will burn that money for them
I once said on the shed that only rich capitalist countries can afford environmentalism. Seemed beyond argument but of course the leftists shouted it down. Look at the Soviet Union - a paradise of clean air and water like China
America could afford to clean some things up
Can't afford to blow cash on unicorns and rainbows. -

When did Oregon become the Lesbo politician state?SFGbob said:Great news for Oregon. Kate Brown II has announced the state is going to end the homeless problem by spending a lot of money and putting crazy meth and fentanyl and severe alcoholics into public housing. Finally, some outside the box thinking on the homeless issue. Next thing you know is that San Fran and LA will be adopting these new radical public policies and the homeless issue will be solved.
Public Housing? Sounds like redlining to me.
Cue the lawyers 30 years from now suing for Reparations for drug addicts whose rent we all pay. -

There's endless data showing that providing housing in this way doesn't work. But THIS time should be fine, I'm sure -
Your boy Kemp is in some fine company. Now you know why he won rather easily and all the other GOP lost
Shitty Trump candidates lol

Green Gaia Religionists are like Goldilocks.
Global Warming: This mountain doesn't have enough snow.
Global Warming: This mountain has too much snow.
Unicorn Climate: This mountain has just the right amount of snow.
Of course asking a leftard what the right amount of snow is an exercise in futility. Should Chicago be under a mile of ice like the perfect non-man affected climate of 12,000 BC? Or like Greenland which was green when the Vikings colonized it around 1,000 AD.

Final depressive episode and death
Before her death, Plath tried several times to take her own life.[36] On August 24, 1953, she overdosed on sleeping pills,[37] then, in June 1962, she drove her car off the side of the road into a river, which she later said was an attempt to take her own life.[38]
In January 1963, Plath spoke with John Horder, her general practitioner,[36] and a close friend who lived near her. She described the current depressive episode she was experiencing; it had been ongoing for six or seven months.[36] While for most of the time she had been able to continue working, her depression had worsened and become severe, "marked by constant agitation, suicidal thoughts and inability to cope with daily life".[36] Plath struggled with insomnia, taking medication at night to induce sleep, and frequently woke up early.[36] She lost 20 pounds (9 kg).[36] However, she continued to take care of her physical appearance and did not outwardly speak of feeling guilty or unworthy.[36]
23 Fitzroy Road, near Primrose Hill, London, where Plath died by suicide
Horder prescribed her an anti-depressant, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor,[36] a few days before her suicide. Knowing she was at risk alone with two young children, he says he visited her daily and made strenuous efforts to have her admitted to a hospital; when that failed, he arranged for a live-in nurse. Commentators have argued that because anti-depressants may take up to three weeks to take effect, her prescription from Horder would not have taken full effect.[39]
The nurse was due to arrive at nine on the morning of February 11, 1963, to help Plath with the care of her children. Upon arrival, she could not get into the flat but eventually gained access with the help of a workman, Charles Langridge. They found Plath dead with her head in the oven, having sealed the rooms between her and her sleeping children with tape, towels and cloths.[40] She was 30 years old.[41]
Plath's intentions have been debated. That morning, she asked her downstairs neighbor, Trevor Thomas (1907–1993), what time he would be leaving. She also left a note reading "Call Dr. Horder", including the doctor's phone number. It is argued Plath turned on the gas at a time when Thomas would have been able to see the note (although the escaping gas had seeped downstairs and also rendered Thomas unconscious while he slept).[42] However, in her biography Giving Up: The Last Days of Sylvia Plath, Plath's friend, Jillian Becker, wrote, "According to Mr. Goodchild, a police officer attached to the coroner's office, [Plath] had thrust her head far into the gas oven and had really meant to die."[43] Horder also believed her intention was clear. He stated that "No one who saw the care with which the kitchen was prepared could have interpreted her action as anything but an irrational compulsion."[41] Plath had described the quality of her despair as "owl's talons clenching my heart".[44] In his 1971 book on suicide, friend and critic Al Alvarez claimed that Plath's suicide was an unanswered cry for help,[41] and spoke, in a BBC interview in March 2000, about his failure to recognize Plath's depression, saying he regretted his inability to offer her emotional support: "I failed her on that level. I was thirty years old and stupid. What did I know about chronic clinical depression? She kind of needed someone to take care of her. And that was not something I could do."[45]
By chance, the artist Maxwell Gordon Lightfoot had killed himself in a nearby house in the same street in 1911. -
Reading Sylvia Plath for the artsy/troubled hate their fathers, women when I went to college was de rigueur.RaceBannon said:

The green gaia religon marches on. Data Centers have been a big growth item in Oregon. Therefore they must be crushed. Consuming electricity is bad because we need base load coal and gas plants. So, we will kick data centers out of Oregon and replace them with electric vehicles which don't consume base load electricity. Geezus. The only coal plant in Oregon closed in 2020 and it has been 10 years since a new coal plant was built in the US. The chicoms are bringing new coal plants on line at one a week. But, its the US that needs to sacrifice by closing efficient non-polluting natural gas plants and replacing them with unicorn farts. The 543% increase in carbon emissions is BS. Even if accurate its a five fold increase from a little to a little more than a little. The data centers are along the Columbia River because of cheap hydro power which the small electric cooperatives have priority purchase rights from the BPA.
