CAN'T JUST BE THE DEM OR REP GOVERNOR'S FAULTS,,,ALSO THE STATE LEGISLATURE, EH ?
WE USE TO HAVE 30-40 YEARS AGO THE BEST MAINTAINED HIGHWAYS AND LANDSCAPED EDGES, AND NOW WE HAVE FOR 3-4 YEARS IN A ROW THE WORST ROADS IN THE USA,,,

BEFORE SANTA CLARA VALLEY BECAME SILICONE VALLEY, THE MAJOR POLLUTION WAS THE 1600S OLD MEXICAN-SPANISH MERCURY QUICKSILVER MINES OF ALMADEN LEAKING INTO THE S.F. BAY,,,THAT THE CITY OF SAN JOSE AND THE COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA AND THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA STILL DO NOT WANT TO FIX AND CLEAN UP,,,BUT NOW WITH ALL THE EARLY SERIOUSLY TOXIC CHEMICALS OF THE EARLY COMPUTER INDUSTRY THAT HAVE LEAKED INTO THE GROUND WATER TABLE, THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER SAYS THIS AREA HAS THE GREATEST CONCENTRATION OF TOXIC, TOXIC, SUPERFUND SITES OF THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES !! AND YET HOUSING PRICES ARE ALMOST AS RIDICULOUS AS SAN FRANCISCO,,,,AND THE TRAFFIC IS NOT SO BAD WITH SO MANY UNEMPLOYED AND LEAVING,BUT IF IT WAS A HOT ECONOMY THE POOR TRAFFIC PLANNING WOULD MEAN A CAR PARKING LOT TO WORK,,,AND BART IS SUCH AN ENGINEERING AND GOVT FIASCO OF A FAILURE, CONSIDERING IT IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING CUTTING EDGE TECH--WE SHOULD HAVE JUST PLUGGED IN A BULLET TRAIN--AND THE OUTRAGEOUS COST TO OPERATE THIS BASTARD SYSTEM,,,
THE STATE POLS ARE GIVING AWAY OUR WATER RIGHTS AGAIN,,,GOING FROM PUBLIC TO PRIVATIZED=FAILURE,,,TO PUBLIC AND NOW BACK TO SELLING OUT PRIVITAZATION OF THE WATER THE STATE CONSTITUTION SAYS BELONGS TO ALL CALIFORNIANS,,,
WHAT THE HE-LL HAPPENED IN CALIFORNIA !?!?
