Synopsis

California is a shell of its once powerful self, with policy misstep after misstep turning the state into a political superfund site. Can the once-golden state be cleaned up and recapture its place as the nation’s model for innovation and prosperity? Senator Ted Gaines draws on the state’s rich Gold Rush history to show just how far California has fallen from its freewheeling, risk-taking past, and outlines some of the many problems with California’s sky high taxes and energy costs, crumbling infrastructure, outdated schools and more. He offers some simple, common-sense, free-market solutions to the state’s pressing challenges. With Gaines’ ideas, California can be rehabilitated, but will the ruling Progressive elites listen? In the same vein as Arthur Laffer’s “Eureka!: How to Fix California,” or “The Beholden State: California's Lost Promise and How to Recapture It,” CA-Boom! doesn’t sugar coat the mess that is current-day California, but holds out hope for the future. The book is a must-read for anyone who still believes in the promise of the Golden State.
