[history]
SACRAMENTO (AP) - Gov. Gray Davis has asked the committee scraping to fill a $23.6 billion budget hole to find $1 billion more -- with cuts or tax increases -- to boost emergency reserves and protect California's credit.
Now, after two full weeks of meetings, the Conference Committee on the Budget must decide how to come up with about $5.5 billion. That includes $1 billion reserve, about $1 billion in additions the panel has made to the budget and roughly $3.5 billion in car and cigarette tax increases proposed by Davis last month.

Looking for one billion in all the wrong places.

It would be interesting to see what kind of interest penalties California is paying right now because the leadership (democrats) do not have a prudent financial plan in place.Very. It's just too damn bad that the calpowercrisis archives are unavailable or I would find the post where the interest rates on the RAN were published last year.
It was a FReeperette who posted the information, IIRC. JeanS, possibly?

What do you mean "or maybe it was you"? Inquiring minds want to know.
To: Saundra Duffy
About a year ago, someone posted the interest rate schedule on the California RANS. I couldn't remember who it was and thought that maybe it was you.
