... why, yes. Yes, we do.
From the Washington Examiner:
The California Republican Party is functionally dead. And how is California doing, now that liberals have successfully terminated the state's remaining conservatives?
For starters, it's still in debt. Despite Brown's historic tax hike, the California Legislative Analyst's Office announced this week that the state still faces a $2 billion budget deficit just for the next fiscal year. California's liberal electorate has already racked up an additional $370 billion in state and local debt over that last decade. That is more than 20 percent of the state's gross domestic product.
What are Californians getting for all this government spending? According to a new census report released Friday, almost one-quarter, 23.5 percent, of all Californians are in poverty. One-third of all the nation's welfare recipients live in the state, despite the fact that California has only one-eighth of the country's population. That's four times as many as the next-highest welfare population, which is New York. Meanwhile, California eighth-graders finished ahead of only Mississippi and District of Columbia students on reading and math test scores in 2011.
Middle-class families that want actual jobs, not welfare, are fleeing California in droves. According to IRS data compiled by the Manhattan Institute, since 2000, almost 2 million Americans have left California for other states. Their most popular destination: Texas.
How bad is it? A state that votes to inflict this amount of pain upon itself yet won't even vote to legalize marijuana as it had a chance to back in 2010.

Mary Jane would be just the ticket. Think of the increased tax revenue and the reduced enforcement costs! Yep, giving the populace a sedative would make things go, go, GO!
