If you don't keep the pressure on the legislature (i.e. don't ask for bond election) then they will NEVER cut spending. Shut down all non-essential state government functions if you must, but don't give in. If you give in once, then taxes will be raised, and you know they will never come down. We collect quite enough money to do the things a state government should do. The problem is that we do many things a state government should not do.

Arnold was very specific, that the bond measure would be tied to spending caps.

"Schwarzenegger said the bonds must be linked to a constitutional spending limit that will prevent the state from overspending and developing deficits in the future."
