Born and Raised

Californian, that is. I used to say that earthquakes were the price you paid for living in paradise. Now, after learning that Californians actually defeated a proposition to limit Kelo-style property seizures, I think I'd rephrase that:

Living among the insane is the price you pay for paradise.

I'm never going back. I'm not even missing it. The California I loved is long gone.

Actually, prop 90 is a lot more complicated than that and thankfully, enough voters actually researched it well enough to realize that it stood to do more harm than good as a typical "stealth iniioative".

California propositions are seldom as simple as they purport, making this system of legislation rife with pitfalls.
