Why I left, 1:

LA Times: Rising Costs Push California Cities to the Brink.

Why I left, 2:

NRO, Conrad Black: The 2012 Contest.

...The judges haven't judged; the legislators haven't legislated, the presidents haven't presided, but nor have the teachers taught, the information industry informed, or the beneficiaries and inheritors of responsible government acted responsibly.

...But in a democracy, the people get the government they deserve, and the fault is in ourselves.

Rearranged. Substitute "governor" for "presidents" ...but the reasoning is the same: I finally realized that the problem in California wasn't so much the officials, as the voters who kept electing those officials.

Time to leave (with apologies to Roy Batty).
