Bankruptcy? No Worries! California Is “Going Green!” - Austin Hill - Townhall Conservative

Bankruptcy? No Worries! California Is “Going Green!” - Austin Hill - Townhall Conservative: "First, let me make this clear: I’m a native Californian, and I grew up thinking that California was pretty much the center of the universe.

As a very small child I knew that President Richard Nixon was born about 25 miles north and his “Western White House” was about 35 miles south of where I lived (doesn’t every kid experience the President vacationing near his home?). While in elementary school, my favorite tv shows – “Emergency,” “Adam 12” and “The Rockford Files” to name a few – all included panoramic glimpses of cityscapes and freeways that were familiar. I didn’t “dream” about this California – for better or worse, I lived it.

College, graduate school, and my media career have taken me around the state – Sacramento, San Diego, Fresno, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles – all very different places, and all California. It’s a really big place that I know really well, and it is a part of me."
