I think governors can impact their economies through tax policies quicker and with more effect than any president can impact the national economy...

Two words: Jerry Brown

California's economy has rapidly moved underground to avoid government regulators whose existence is founded upon generating fees, fines and taxation.

Industry has fled California...get a clue.

According to the Democrats.

It's actually 8th largest.

Government spending isn't supposed to be added to GDP...drop that out and 12% of the $2.2 trillion goes
buh-bye!

Bullshit on any truck with a full tank of gas for $40. Today's even small size trucks have fuel tank capacities in the high teens-low 20s gallons, and the 1/2 tons more than that. AAA showed today's national avg at $2.74 and Illinois at $2.95.

And the avg was $1.89 when Obama entered office..

Averages are nice, but nobody pays the average and people don't care what the national average is. They care about what they actually pay. I didn't go to SPINX yesterday and pay an average of $2.74/gallon. It was $2.34. Averages are talking points to show that, on the whole, things are better or worst. That makes you feel good. Makes you feel that things are better (or not) but it's a marketing ploy to get you to make an emotional connection.

You should know by know that Politics has to tug on the heart strings. That's how you get elected and get policy moving forward. Emotion not logic (see Obamacare).

And that was in SC, one of the lower cost states where the AAA avg today is $2.44. Within 20 cents +/- of your state avg makes sense. And its still bs that anyone today is going to fill a full tank of gas on a truck in IL (today avg $2.95) for $40..
