Fuck that I'll take Gallagher for governor, smashing watermelons and shit. Dude is hilarious. Tax Cuts?? Boom.
Grey Davis was a fucked up ass horrible governor though, no doubt. During his stay state income increased 13% and state spending increased 40%. Not to mention his dumb ass supported deregulation, which caused the power crisis.

Deregulation was supported by many people other than Davis, and I believe it was initiated by Pete Wilson the prior Governor. However, the major supporters of deregulation were actually the rate-payers who, erroneously, thought they were being overcharged for electricity and natural gas and figured that deregulation would create competition and lower rates. So, ironically, the rate-payers own greed actually contributed to the energy crisis in their state.
He was a major factor...I don't give a shit who supported it before him...his ass was in collusion with the power companies.
And there was a big public information blitz about how it was gonna be all great for Cali to pass this bill and shit. I remember the commercials..."it will lead to a lower electric bill, and bla bla"
It wasn't greed that caused it, it was straight up capitalism. People honestly had the impression that the only thing changing in the process would be the prices.
