In a recent issue of Slate, the online magazine, political reporter Christopher Beam researched a question growing in many people\u2019s minds: “Can California declare bankruptcy?” The answer is no. Beam explains that if California can no longer meet its financial obligations and runs out of borrowing sources,the federal government can put the state into receivership.<\/p>\n

To manage the state\u2019s debt, the feds would appoint an accountant who wouldin turnbe overseen by a judge. The accountant, or the California Czar, would have the power to force creditors to renegotiate the terms of their outstanding loans.<\/p>\n

Another unsettling fact for creditors: The state cannot be sued; it has “sovereign immunity,” and it can keep on borrowing until creditors figure out they\u2019re never going to be repaid in full and just stop lending them any money.<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s California doing in the meantime? Well, as always, the legislators who run the place say a new tax will help plug a massive budget hole; the latest gap –$20 billion. So last week, the state raised taxes on gasoline (again). Which, of course, will further depress commerce and further erode the state\u2019s tax base elsewhere. <\/p>\n

Despite Mr. Beam\u2019s diligent research, I have come to a different conclusion. The liberals that run California took a once-prosperous state and turned intoutter shambles. For all intents and purposes, California is already “bankrupt.” Thingsare not going tochange for the betteruntil the libs are driven from office.<\/p>\n

Now, I know you say, “But Rush! You and every one of these updates essentially say, ‘Until we get rid of the liberals.'” That\u2019s right! And I\u2019m going to keep saying it until we do! I\u2019m not going anywhere until it happens — it\u2019s the only way we\u2019re going to save the country. Learn it, love it, live it!<\/p>\n
