bearThose of us here in California have known for a long time the state government is innept at best and corrupt at worst. We booted Gray Davis out of the governors office with a recall in 2003. Still we are bankrupt with little or no change.

California, was once the envy of the nation with the country’s best schools, infrastructure system and a thriving economy. Today our schools are the worst in nation, our state has the two most congested regions in the country, our unemployment rate is higher than the national average and California is consistently ranked the worst state to do business. Our legislature has failed to pass a budget on time 22 times in the past 30 years, each day of the delays costing the taxpayers tens of millions of dollars. Special interests have hijacked the initiative system, passing misleading initiatives through expensive campaigns.

There appears to be no way to correct any of this under the present State Rule.

So perhaps its time for drastic action on the part of California citizens.
A Constitutional Convention is under way.
