I'd love to hear the spin that explains how the 2/3 budget rule encourages "both parties" to spend even more irresponsibly -- as opposed to preventing it from happening.
Winston Churchill was once quoted as saying: "Any man who is under 30, and is not a liberal, has no heart; and any man who is over 30, and is not a conservative, has no brains." I'm over 30, so that probably explains why I see things for what they really are, as opposed to seeing them as I've been told to see them.

The problems is, in most of Cali, people don't pull their heads out of their a$$e$ until they're 50-60 years old. We'd be OK if it was just 30 years old.
