    California’s overregulated job market is falling behind (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    California had roughly 224,000 fewer employed residents in July 2026 than in February 2020, just before the pandemic.

    Los Angeles Unified’s self-inflicted financial crisis (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    On July 2, Los Angeles County Superintendent of Schools Debra Duardo sent the Los Angeles Unified School District a letter that should alarm every taxpayer and parent in the district. Duardo determined that LAUSD meets the statutory criteria for a “Lack of Going Concern” designation, meaning the nation’s second largest school district may be unable to meet its financial obligations in fiscal years 2027-28 and 2028-29. The district’s own projections show its operating cash falling $231 million in
