NOTE: this was based on 2010-11 fiscal year I believe. It’s probably considerably worse now…. But considering that 39.8% is dedicated to K-12, 26.3% is dedicated to health and human services, and 11% is dedicated to college, with a bunch more misc expenses….CA is on borrowed time…Time’s up
Note that:
In 1990, the state paid 78% of the cost of educating a University of California student; now that figure is 48%, according to UC. Enrollment at California State University campuses has shrunk, and faculty in both the UC and Cal State systems have faced furloughs. Student fees, meanwhile, have roughly tripled in the last decade. Community colleges serve 2.5 million students each year, with fees, at $26 per unit, the lowest in the nation. Recent cutbacks in that 110-campus system have reduced class offerings.
