Well I think it is perfectly ok to criticize and point out issues in Government whether it is Texas or California. I really don't care about "sides". What I care about is that ROI of tax revenue that the state forcefully takes from me. We should expect return on what we pay. Good roads, education, good infrastructure, forward looking plans and instead of asking for more funding, Governments should look inward to improve efficiency. There is a lot of low hanging fruit. I am also OK with more taxes as far as Governments are functional and serve the public. I really don't want to pay for some Gov official that sits on his ass all day getting paid $550k in compensation.

Danger is when we stop criticizing governments and keep tooting the party lines.

I want drastically more accountability for California government. Extreme levels of auditing and shaming, completely take off Emperor's clothes.
