Texas vs. California: Halloween 2012 Edition

Six days to the election, and I’ve spent most of the night handing out candy. Six days until we choose to follow the successful Texas Red State path of low taxes and limited government, or the failing Blue State California path of bankruptcy and bigger government.

  • CalPERS sues Compton to force the bankrupt city to keep donating to the underfunded, soon-to-be-bankrupt state pension fund.
  • Incarcerating someone in a California prison guards costs and average of $47,000 a year. Ridiculous guard salaries and perks.
  • Texas has one of the lowest State-Local debt burdens in the country.
  • For a contrarian view, Victor David Hanson offers up reasons not to leave California.
  • Nothing at all to do with politics, but I can’t resist noting that the “Dream Team” Los Angeles Lakers have hit a little snag on their way to going undefeated in the regular season. Meanwhile, the completely gutted and rebuilt Houston Rockets are 1-0. You take your satisfaction where you can find it…
