Exactly. The word in the liberal vocabulary that comes closest to “cuts” is “taxes”.

In one example, California's public school system, including K-12 and community colleges, will lose roughly $18 billion, setting back years of striving to reach adequate education funding.

Always tugging at the heart strings, education etc. Education? Like how a quarter of their costs is feeding kids food? What has that got to do with education? What about all the bond issues passed to take care of education, but the money was diverted to higher admin salaries?

California must cut departments and cut staff. Period. It's a bloated state government full of waste. Every state department.

And nothing about cutting back on welfare and freebies given to illegal aliens, or getting out of the way of deportations.

The way commercial real estate is heading...getting rid of Prop 13 might actually lower property taxes for some as the new reassessed value might be a lot lower than the current value.

Quadruple taxes on your citizens? Declare bankruptcy? Wall yourself off and create Mexifornia?

You’ve been DESTROYED intentionally...not unlike the rest of the republic. Navin Gruesome is a sick...er slick dude. He can figure it out. Welcome to the Hotel Mexifornia. Sanctuary socialism. You’re living in THEIR PARADISE, and YOU ARE NOT the GANGSTERS.

Kiss THEIR rings. Grovel at their feet or lock arms, ammo and ideas with brothers and sisters in the cities, suburbs and countryside.
