lavish conferences in Arizona and Mexico, where its families traveled free, according to the audit. It bought perks for directors and employees — thousand-dollar dinners, a $653 Hummer stretch limousine ride, $190 bottles of wine —

Okay it is good that this crap is being audited but.....Congress is guilty of the same crap. Shut them down too? My answer would be yes. hehe

Hard to tell if the board members were fruits or just vegetables.

She should take the individuals to court and re-coop 'her' funds ... (sorry, it sounds like the whiny, liberal thing-to-do)

Absolutely typical of many, many California governing and regulatory bodies. At war with the consumer, totally opaque to any outside examination, a cabal of entrenched bureaucrats seeking only to steal what they can.

What is sad is that this is only a tiny proportion of how much this type of thing occurs in government related jobs.

I bet there are many government employees that get a paycheck, but have been lost in the bureaucratic maze so they do not even show up for work anymore.

Her company paid thousands of dollars a month in mandatory dues to finance the board's research and marketing efforts: its legal purpose.

The root of the problem, I dare say.

Geee imagine that? Petty little appointed bureaucrats, unanswerable to anyone, acting like that.

Multiply this by the tens of thousands and you will have a pretty good picture of the total nature of government bureaucracy.
