And I sure wish someone would explain to me how we have had supposedly two distinct major political parties for past thirty years, and despite whichever party in in its ascendent, we still have endless wars, enacted by both parties. And: Endless outsourcing of of jobs.

And the one bright spot in the recovery here in California was the medical marijuana clinics, which Obama and his DOJ put the cabaoosh on. So the state will lose an additional 245 millions of revenue directly, with who knows how many more millions indirectly.

What is needed: We really need to reform the two major parties, and put them back into the framework where they existed during the the fifties - when both parties looked out for middle class Americans, and not the modern politicians real constituents, "Big Corporations."
