re: It looks like California’s billionaire tax is going to fail.

I'm actually pretty surprised at that. People probably just see the writing on the wall that the billionaires are the low hanging fruit and that they will eventually start coming for everyone.
Yep, that was actually written into the bill as a smaill one paragraph section.See section 50310
Section 50310 of the 2026 Billionaire Tax Act allows the California Legislature to amend the Act by a two-thirds vote, provided the amendments are consistent with and further the purposes of the Act. This section specifically enables changes to any part of the initiative, including the tax rate and the threshold for billionaires, without requiring another statewide vote.
A 2/3 vote in this one party state is a piece of cake.

At some level that may be true but I'm not really sure that will weed out the establishment very well. Most politicians higher than dog catcher are in politics for life and are always looking for their next gig.

Just read Google has confirmed the new Tensor SOC is not the new TSMC 2nm process as was rumored. The SOC is using TSMC's 3nm process.

There has been 30 years of indoctrination starting in elementary schools through college and backed by Hollywood types and mainstream media.
I'll change my ways....I promise.
