    I say let ’em go and make further cuts. If DMV is only open 3 or 4 days a week, fine. If schools have to cut out a month or two of classes, fine. If other government-related offices are only open 3-4 days a week, fine. Sure, there will be some inconvenience. But we simply don’t have the money to pay for all of this shit. Never did. Other countries and their populations manage on a small fraction of the post-cutback government we’re looking at. We’ll survive. And we might actually learn a few things from this sordid episode. Let’s tighten up those belts. It’s been a long time coming.

    Cutting school days is suicidal. Administrative overhead needs to be cut, especially buddy-buddy consultancy fees.

    Political ploy. Govt is in the process of getting stronger, not weaker. This is where all the new jobs will be created in the near future. Obama knows this as does Arnold. And taxes will be rising. Yippeeeee.

    Taxes may rise on paper, but I bet collections won’t.
    The Gov may indeed create new jobs, but where will the money come from to pay those people? How exactly will all this hiring occur on the heels of such large lay-offs as are now being contemplated in CA? Inquiring minds want to know.
