It’s too bad that California can’t withdraw from the U.S. of America.  We the People have had a bellyful of working hard, paying taxes, giving money to California for their endless fires, water problems and railway to nowhere.  A couple of years ago, Gavin Newsom wanted more money for his “reparations commission”.  At that time, Newsom proposed $1.2-mlllion per black person for reparations.  But, activists demanded higher payments from that task force; $1.2 million just doesn’t cut-it for them.  They black activists demanded higher payments; they want $200-million per every black resident of California.  “Throwing a million dollars at us is inadequate and an injustice”.
