The LAT argues this morning in an editorial for an end to California's constitutional requirement that budgets and tax increases be approved by two-thirds of legislators. It's interesting.
Democrats in the legislature refuse to bargain with Republicans because Republicans refuse to consider tax increases. Democrats refuse to cut expenditures sufficient to balance the budget. Who's at fault? Californians are already among the highest-taxed people in the world. If they were under-taxed a tax increase would make sense.
Democrats don't let a little thing like the state constitution affect their decision-making. They just ignore the constitution. They call a tax increase a fee and go about their business, illegally.
It doesn't pay to trust such people.
