Progressives accuse Conservatives of being liars, but if they packaged what is said by Progressives everywhere, and applied it to vegetable gardens, food shortages in the world would disappear.
IMHO
Kali-Fornia is bankrupt!
Unfortunately, everyone in the USA will have to pay to bail these progressives (nee, LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascist bastards) out.
I deeply resent having to pay for LIEberal mistakes!
Here’s how it works. Let’s say you’re a bureaucrat in The Parks Service. (Or, the school system, or the public transport, etc.) Your agenda is to provide service to your constituents. If you report how much money you actually have, politicians higher up the food chain swoop down and take the money. So, you hide it inside the accounting mechanisms under your control. I did the same thing as a manager in a company. I needed to upgrade computers so I could finish the contracts I was responsible for. I piece-parted them under a “repairs” account at a much higher price than if I’d been allowed to go out and buy them. Had my boss known he’d have taken the money as he got to keep a tiny portion of the unspent budget as part of his personal bonus. (BTW, he usually bought a new car when he got his yearly bonus.) The fact that the company wouldn’t complete the contracts was irrelevant in his personal accounting.
California sad circus. I really feel bad for the conservatives living there. The libs? They are reaping what they have sown. Let ‘em drown. Let ‘em stew in their own juices. Just deserts, etc.
"Gov. Mitch Daniels announced last December that the state lost track of $320 million in corporate tax collections. State Budget Director Adam Horst then announced in April the state owed $206 million to Indiana's counties. Three top Indiana revenue officials resigned following the revelations."
HINT: It's spelled CALPERS.
“Gov. Jerry Brown’s administration on Friday announced that $119 million more in untapped money was found in a sweeping audit of state accounts, bringing to more than $286.5 million the sum lawmakers were unaware of as they repeatedly cut government services…The additional money that lawmakers were unaware of includes funds for healthcare programs, reimbursement of crime victims and cleanup of underground petroleum tanks.”
Hmmmmm. Was this misplaced on purpose, to be distributed to...at a later date.
Someone needs to check the white hut’s couch cushions before November.
That’s amount to about 6% of the total California budget that was misplaced....
“That’s amount to about 6% of the total California budget that was misplaced...?
One wonders in which or whose bank accounts the funds were “misplaced”?
Just asking.
“The Libs? They are reaping what they have sown.”
And, if Obama wins in November, the taxpayers will be reaping what has been sown by Libs. (As usual.)
IMHO
I just bet they did. More money to scam.
Tim Kaine, Democrat running for U.S. Senate, closed 11 rest areas around Virginia while $1.5 BILLION sat idly in the coffers. Bob McDonnell, the current VA governor, found the money and reopened the rest areas.
I’d love to see how much $$$ is hidden in Federal agency accounts.
Check the politician's bank accounts.
The departments in which that ‘lost’ cash was found obviously didn’t need that money to operate last year, so their budgets for next year should be reduced by those amounts. That way, they won’t have to worry about that leftover money at the end of the next fiscal year.
” Your agenda is to provide service to your constituents.”
Ok. You see where you went wrong, there?
And I remain ever hopeful that Leprechauns will leave a pot of gold at the foot of my bed.
In a “Hope and Change” moment, I looked under my couch cushions.....all I found was some lint, a toothpick a dime and a penny. I need a better class of couch!!
Big deal. That’ll just be considered a windfall and spent on more BS giveaway entitlement programs.
