[quote=threadkiller]I believe Arnold tried to get money from the Feds for allowing the illegals into CA in the first place,Feds say no way jose. The Feds are in denial and yet I believe they are matching funds for welfare recipients,someone please correct me if I’m wrong. I admire Arnold for attempting to reign in costs,prison guard salaries and pensions,but alas he is fighting a losing battle, only bankruptcy will save us now. Arnold is not perfect, but I as a Democrat do support him.[/quote]
I agree, and just like foreclosures are the true answer for the housing crisis, so is bankruptcy for the state.
We need to hit that reset button.

Yes, we do have a problem with welfare, but isn’t gov’t employment in no small way welfare in itself?
I really wish the term “Civil Servant” would be phased out, because we all know who the real servants are…[/quote]
Approximately 40% of our school and prison populations are comprised of illegal immigrants and/or their kids. Take away that burden (all the costs of all the infrastructure and employee expenses), and our state budget problems would largely be solved.
