Hint: It's not the conservatives!

Seems like Liberalism is about to devout itself in the Sunshine State.

Actually, it's both. The "liberals" vote in the mandates. The "conservatives"
block the taxes. Both sides disconnect rights from responsibilities. You get
the worst of both worlds.

Look at their electric "deregulation" of a few years back. The retail prices
were regulated (classic big government utility/monopoly idea) but the wholesale
prices weren't (classic laissez-faire trickle-down supply-side
free-market-capitalism).

Coupled with that was the desire for high tech jobs and investment (Silicon
Valley) but not the responsibility to build the infrastructure to run it
(power lines, generating stations).

End result: Lotta people's lights went out.

Then they come up with notions like putting chunks of mind-bending
intellectual and political expertise like Arnold to work on leading
'em out of the swamp . .

Burlesque v.2003.
