Norm notice how the headline emphasized cuts when an analysis of the hype shows the proposal to be substantially a shift in spending to the private sector (aka Schwarzenegger's donors).

The spending increases will still continue (1.5% instead of 7%) at a time when real, significant (9% to 13%) cuts are necessary and now Arnie's donor's get a cut of the action for good measure. No surprises.

What a big mistake the California electorate made. As bizarre as it sounds, there is a growing body of evidence that the state may have well be fiscally better off under Davis than Schwarzenegger for the next three years.

curious how the flock can get fleeced so easily, huh?

Some folks don;t like being told the Recall was hijacked, but near-term, little will have changed at this rate. The liberal spending is pretty much unfettered, the unions are able to wangle deals that may offer a little relief/cuts now, but will receive considerations later,.

How about us, the little people, I guess we aren't special enough to bear consideration, but now will be subjected to all these "fixes" and more of the old gadgetry some here have mastered so well. Strange, huh?

In the mean time, expect lots of parcel taxes and revenue enhancement "fees" at the local level.

What a mess, and now it bears an "R" as an imprint of one of the continuators of this gub'mental charade.
