For the record
British GDP
2007 2,799,040,362,405 (High Point)
2009 2,174,529,808,278
Californa
2006(couldn't find 2007) 1,812,968 (for refrence UK was about 2,400,000,000)
2009 1,891,260,000,000
So... seems more like UK drop combined with just California slow crawl.
Of course with 1.5 billions in unpaid pensions... and all sorts of other debt problems... I wouldn't be surprised if California started to drop rapidly. I hear senators are working on State bankruptcy laws just for the occasion. (Well and a few other states.)
