Right. Incredulously, you are willingly paying them to stuff that mindless entertainment drivel your way. And lapping it up.

Where do you draw the line? Whats the tipping point? Whats going to happen when these liberals get their way and they start charging you per mile you drive in CA? Because I can assure you thats coming in the next few years. When are people going to take a stand here and stop paying other peoples way by paying for their stupid fast food jobs and healthcare for ILLEGALS? No one has any balls in this state anymore.

Points for Option 1. A realist enjoys life

You mean like you are paying corporate welfare through your taxes to the companies such as McDonald's who then profit from the low wage workers' labor? Good question. When WILL you take a stand against [corporate] welfare?

Why should I be outraged about something that not only hasn't happened yet, and is still on the drawing board, but that is highly unlikely to happen? Did you read your own article? Read the part about Guv Brown's opinion of it. And take your alarmism to the Pol. forum.

I don't know but when I've left CA in the past it has nothing to do with anything except personal things. I'm moving back in a few months but if I have to draw the line at some point, I'll know what it is when I get there.

I don't know and if that happens that's pretty sad but I'll believe it/deal with it when I see it.

No one in the state has so-called balls because no one wants to. But that's something you have to deal with. It's a political issue that no one individually can do anything about except agree or disagree. If it gets outrageously dumb it the coming years then maybe I'll leave for good but I'm not at a point in my life where I'm horribly affected by that. I'm also younger than most people who probably post on here so I don't have a ton of real family issues and tons of expenses. Yet. Maybe then it'll be different.

Drawing board? Its passed thru the senate already! Thats far beyond the "drawing board". You don't think this will pass the state assembly? Are you new to politics? Let me break it down for you. CA is filled with millions of illegals and the senate and house are filled with Democrats looking for re-election. What better way to secure the Latino vote then by pandering to illegals. You even see Hillary Clinton doing this now as she desperatley tries to secure Latino voters, its pathetic and disgusting. Lets not forget the most important part...

SB 4 is estimated to cost taxpayers anywhere between $170 to $740 million annually

Yeah! You don't see conservatives pandering to fringe voting blocs Conservative politicians just stick with their red, white, and blue flag waving base of tea partiers and evangelical fanatics.

The only thing bankrupting CA is the amount of Federal Taxes being "trickled down" to the poorer states.

I have always wondered why people both democrat and republican aren't outraged by illegals, THEY ARE COMITTING A CRIME AND SOMEHOW THEY HAVE BECOME SOME KIND OF BEACON OF CIVIL RIGHTS STRUGGLE

here is my prediction. The Dems will lose all whites besides the fringe SJW types, the Asians will leave the Dems when they see that they worked hard to come here legally and be productive and blacks will start slowly slipping over to the "racist" GOP when they see that their friends in the democrat party have sold them out for a voting block with a higher birth rate and they start getting left behind. I wonder how blacks feel that they have lost their top dog minority status to Mexicans, I wonder if they know that life under a Latino majority will be worse for them then a white one because Latinos see them as mayates and have no white guilt..blacks have already realized that which is why they have fled Compton and Oakland because of Mexican racist violence.
