One-party government weakens accountability and breeds hubris. The California legislature has been controlled by the Democratic Party for decades, and it takes its cue from its party’s most powerful special interests: public-employee unions, environmentalists, trial lawyers, and teachers’ unions.
从这些令人痛惜的事实中可以汲取重要的教训。一党政府削弱问责制并滋生傲慢。民主党几十年来一直控制着加州的立法机关，长期听命于公务员工会、环保人士、辩护律师和教师工会等该党最强大的特殊利益群体。
