In Memoriam

Rest in peace, California.  An Onion-worthy satire.
Under the influence of spiritual guru Jerry Brown, it began wholesale experimentation in exotic spending programs, eventual resulting in a traumatic 1979 stay at the Prop 13 Rehab Center.

"California loves children," said Vermont. "California loves children, because deep inside California is a also a child -- full of innocent wonder, and the belief that any budget wish can come true as long as you just wish hard enough."

In 2003 the state rejected suggestions that it was facing bankruptcy, saying that "I can't be out of money, I still have checks left."
