Ok, Arnold, here's what you do. You hold a press conference tomorrow morning and announce that every state budget now has X-percent (fill in your own amount) less funds than it did yesterday. You then state: “This measure is necessary to assure the ongoing state services. Any department head who cannot continue to provide services of equal quantity and quality during the next six months will be replaced by someone who can. Thank you for your attention...have a nice day.”

Cut every state agency budget by 5 percent. Do it again.
