[quote=CA renter]We’ve discussed these issues in some of our Prop 13 debates, and it seems most of us — no matter which political side we are on — agree that California’s biggest problem is **spending** and not income. [/quote]

Even though a few of us brought numbers to demonstrate that California spending per capita is on par with Texas (whose Medicaid is so underfunded that Texas boasts the highest percentage of people without health insurance in the nation, 25%) and below Oregon. But we’re the blue state, therefore we must be spending money out the wazoo. Who needs numbers.
