I'm not so sure about local governments getting bigger due to a democrat majority.
Villaraigosa was yelling some incoherent stuff a couple weeks ago about HR1 taking billions away from the City of Los Angeles and how it will kill "job creation". I skimmed through HR 1 , something like 359 pages of government speak which seemed mostly to apply to the military and Homeland security. However, Federal dollars don't "create jobs", federal subsidization is a form of working welfare in which cronies of city hall denizens reap bank. Sort of like "redevelopment". In any case, even while he has "got his", I believe Villaraigosa is feeling the heat. I don't believe in his hell raising Mecha days that he ever dreamed his "Aztlan" would be such a place - broke, uneducated, potentially ungovernable, and the redistribution cow has been milked dry Sometimes you might want to carefully consider what you wish for because you might get it. And Tony is neck deep in it now.
