Ca-lol-fornia

The United States is starting to turn into a typical cracked out old whore of the Empire. I'm sad to say I watched a lot of the worst part of this happening in my own life time. The total fraud of all the wars since 2001 has just been darkly and snarkly remarked on. There's been no real opposition to it. No neocons are pushing up daisies as a result of some righteous patriots' wrath. Also, the shitty financial/corporate world has "muscled", no really it flounced and bitched its way into everyone's business with no pushback at all. It's sad.

California is sort of  the epicenter of rot in the United States as the state utility prepares to purposefully cut off electricity for millions of its own customers because of its shitty infrastructure and some lame excuses. Where did all the money from all the electric bills the customers had been paying for years, never mind all the tax breaks, subsidies, blah blah from various levels of government end up?

California's also been the hub for "tech" and reaped the shower of funny money from the banking system. The industry has absorbed untold trillions and produced what exactly... rehashed versions of the same thing 100x. How many lifetimes have been spent on its expansion? It's hard to say.

People are deluded when they imagine rapid economic "growth" is laudable. That kind of growth is like cancer. It really is just people wasting their time on pointless dead end, no value activities.
