For the past several years, California's liberal government accountants have announced glorious "balanced budgets" (which in fact are required by the state constitution)... only to have their predictions of high revenues and low spending blow up in their faces. Year after year.
This year, we have glorious predictions of the same high revenues and low spending, resulting in a balanced or surplus budgets.
Uh-huh.
Then only interesting thing about this thread, is that there appears to be one remaining leftist fanatic who still believes the same old failed predictions, despite years of grim evidence debunking them.
(yawn)
The GOP's power in the state was FINALLY scraped. And the good results are just starting.

Or maybe not so much.
My post was about California, not Illinois. And writing 'my ass' next to a quote is a poor debate tactic. You lose.
Deluding yourself into believing that Californian Democrats can and will crawl out from under $340 billion in liabilities through "adjustments to revenue and benefits" is testament to your inability to comprehend state finances and your blind faith in Liberals.
Conservatives were predicting the Californian Democrats couldn't solve the budget deficit either not too long ago too.
Conservatives always make stupid predictions. We're still waiting for the massive inflation from QE2. And what ever happened to the cheering Iraqis predicted ten years ago?
Tell you what, why don't conservatives just shut the f___ up instead, and let liberals run things. California has proven what can be accomplished when conservative power is brought to an end.

California now has $2.4 billion surplus
Tax increases never balance budgets.
Remember that.

Sacramento --
For the first time in nearly a decade, California is collecting more revenue than it is spending and will finish the fiscal year with an extra $2.4 billion, according to a report released Wednesday by the Legislature's nonpartisan budget analyst.
The good news comes after an era that saw one of the worst budget crises in California history - the fiscal shortfall sank to $60 billion in the 2009-10 budget, the state controller mailed IOUs to vendors in 2009 and state lawmakers slashed programs year after year to make ends meet.
Now, thanks to the passage of Proposition 30 last year and the improving economy, California is looking at surpluses for the next six years - even after the temporary taxes under Prop. 30 expire, according to the Legislative Analyst's Office.
==================================================
They did not have a spending problem at any point. They had a "the GOP has power" problem. Once the voters finally culled the GOP from any real power in Sacramento, the Democrats got down to governing responsibly. They now have funds to spend on education for hispanics and blacks, and services for young women who want to obtain an abortion.
The rest of the country has a lot to learn from California.

California is so broke we can't afford to feed prisoners. A federal judge has ordered the release of 225,000 state prisoners.
Here is where it gets good.
Kamala Harris, uber liberal attorney general has a plan. She will "rehome" prisoners with families in residential neighborhoods. Then they will give up their criminal ways, get a job and be criminals no more. The families will feed the prisoners taking a large burden off the state.
The only thing missing from the plan is how to force families in residential neighborhoods to agree to rehoming.
What good is that when you have $340 billion in un-funded liabilities?
