										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>John Seiler:</p>
<p>You read it here first, folks. In several blogs over the past few months, I predicted that the boycott of Arizona for its immigration law, <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/07/28/AR2010072801794.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SB 1070</a>, would be a massive failure. The YouTube at the end of this blog has a report showing the Arizona economy is doing great (unlike depressed, Arnoldized Kalifornia), and tourism actually is <em>up</em>.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what I wrote:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/04/27/s-f-should-declare-independence/">April 27</a>:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">San Francisco’s <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/04/26/BARD1D55P7.DTL&amp;feed=rss.bayarea" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced boycott</a> of Arizona is ridiculous. They’re both part of the United States, so trade among the states, and cities, is regulated by the federal government.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/05/03/boycott-schmoycott-why-there-isnt-going-to-be-any-boycott-of-arizona/">May 3</a>:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">Boycott, schmoycott (why there isn’t going to be any boycott of Arizona).</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/05/12/l-a-s-joke-boycott-of-arizona/">May 12</a>:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">L.A.<a href="http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local-beat/LA-Council-Considers-Arizona-Boycott-93575949.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> just voted to end</a> “5 contracts  with Arizona-based companies that are worth a combined total of $7.7 million.”</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">It’ll make headlines, but it’s worthless.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">Arizona’s GDP is about <a href="http://phoenix.bizjournals.com/phoenix/stories/2007/07/16/daily3.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$200 billion</a>. So, $7.7 million comes out to .00385 percent.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">I’m sure the Zonies are workin’ in shifts shaking in their flip-flops over that one.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/05/19/zonies-to-boycott-cal/">May 19</a>:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/04/27/s-f-should-declare-independence/">I’ve</a> been <a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/05/03/boycott-schmoycott-why-there-isnt-going-to-be-any-boycott-of-arizona/">saying </a>all <a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2010/05/12/l-a-s-joke-boycott-of-arizona/">along </a>that California threats to boycott Arizona over the Zonies’ immigration law are a massive joke. Now I’m really cracking up.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">Now Arizona is threatening to cut off the electricity they send to California&#8230;.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">The Zonies should shut off L.A.’s power for 10 minutes just for fun.</p>
<p>Remember: CalWatchDog.com is a California Nostradamus. We&#8217;re the only ones who not only report on what&#8217;s going on here in California, we predict what&#8217;s going to happen next.</p>
