In the midst of high unemployment, shaky consumer confidence and plummeting investments, the state needs a slew of tax increases and spending cuts to resolve a $27.8 billion problem over the next 20 months, Legislative Analyst Mac Taylor said.

No wonder they are in financial straits. They have idiots like this running the show............

"The numbers are just truly awful," Taylor said. "It may be as dire a situation as I've seen in my time in the office. And as a result, we are recommending to our bosses it is just imperative that they act quickly and aggressively to address this problem."

In CA, acting quickly will mean an additional request for a bailout that surpasses the $7B Schwarzeneggar has already applied for.

I posted this yesterday, but here goes again...

So what. I’ve been reading since the 70s!!!! about how such and such a city or state is “facing a fin. meltdown by midnight 3 days from now. Essential services will be eliminated, water and elec. will disappear, and the citizens will be forced to eat each other for food and burn each other for heat.” And somehow these liberal cesspools NEVER EVER go away, and actually give out MORE welfare than before. Two years from now CA will look exactly like it does now AND WILL BE GIVING OUT EVEN MORE WELFARE TO MORE BUMS THAN IT DOES TODAY. Don’t ask me how, but that seems to be the pattern.

We keep hearing that financially things keep getting worse and worse in socialist utopias like California and Massachusetts.

Something HAS to give eventually.

I wonder how close those two hellholes are to the breaking point.

Somewhere in the Liberal booklet on how to be a liberal there must be something in there that says lets just spend ourselves into oblivion and then come back later for the taxes to pay for it.

The other thing in there is that we can always print more money it’s an unlimited resource.

Both of these are occuring in the Federal budget and the California budget. A day of reckoning will come!

So we’ll tax the producers, run businesses and investors out of the state and wind up with a really, really big New Jersey! Ain’t socialism fun! Of course, republicans will be right on board the whole way. And then they’ll send out those spledid requests for campaign contributions to the rock ribbed, oh so conservative, true blue American republican party.
