Heck no! The man has grown government faster than a Dem could have dreamed and to finance it, he's deferred, borrowed (this time unsuccessfully), raised fees, and entered into special deals with Indian tribes. But the next big scheme will come as he pumps up the volume for his proposed Public Private Partnerships, helping his cohorts loot Government assets if they will pump some one time cash into the State's revenue coffers, in return. Think about the possibilities of his privatization deals: tollroads, bridges, ports, other privately run highways, schools, housing, security, etc. This man has 3 more years to payoff his donors through sweet deals and favorable legislation. He's only halfway done in his 2 term governorship. Hang on!
So how do you really feel about your governor? LOL!
I’ve got a 4-H to attend to... See ya!
1) Dramatically increased spending
2) Set both state and national records for borrowing
3) Has either deferred payment or refused to recognize significant, long term liabilities.
4) Has dramatically increased per capita taxation on California residents
5) Has announced plans to tax Californians twice for basic services through fascism
6) Has entered into treaties with foreign/sovereign governments supported by domestic taxation.
Schwarzenegger has been, by any measure, the worst governor in the modern era of California. Worse than Warren, the Browns, Wilson or Davis.
Maybe they should let Arnold go with the bonds, so the big spending doesn’t have to be paid for through higher taxes today. Let the next generation worry about it.
...will not be submitting the pension bond matter to the voters.
A guaranteed NO and the Austrian can't stand to be told no.
