Say what you will about California, there are categories in which they clearly lead the nation. Unfortunately, having incredibly stupid voters is one of the biggest. Under the watchful eye of Governor Gray Davis, the California legislature ran up a deficit of around $38 billion dollars, a debt that would rank it 55th out of 183 nations, using today’s debt figures. The outraged people of California, therefore, recalled Davis, only the second governor in history to suffer such an indignity.
