"SACRAMENTO - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's recovery plan will require slashing at least 18 percent from the state's budget for programs such as higher education, social services, welfare and corrections, according to a Times analysis.
After three days in office, Schwarzenegger has provided few details about where he plans to cut. But his comments and proposals so far suggest drastic reductions in almost every state-funded agency except kindergarten through twelfth grade and community college education."

18 percent is a start. We really should double that figure. And let's see the Demorats and GOP purists propose an alternative.
