Or maybe California Democrats will go into the same waste bin of history as too many socialist and communists regimes around the world to count.

Several years ago, while out visiting relatives, the Mrs. and I, out of curiosity, checked to see what I would make as a teacher out there. Given the substantial increase of cost of living over here in Iowa, I thought there would be some increase...nope. I’d actually take a pay cut, assuming that I’d even get paid.

I’ll stay here...

The CTA (teachers union) is the most powerful of unions in CA, they're king-makers. They've stymied the income of their own members, for the influence of political candidates and policy writers. Instead of focusing on the welfare of the people who make up their organization, they've instead used their position to push forward leftist social policy and political agendas. All those hippie twenty-somethings in the 70's, that went on to be educators, are now principals, department heads, policy managers and education board members.

Republicans currently make up only around 25 percent of voters in California.

And they are doing their part to prop up the rampant socialist agenda that strives to throw the yoke onto the rest of us.

I've heard all the reason and excuses. There is no pulling the state back from the precipice it is rushing toward. Enjoy the ride.
