So what about City and county salaries ???I bet it get above $100B once you count thoese.
I wonder where it all fits in,
This should be interesting, It’s going to be painful but I think a mass Local (city/county) and State BK is the only answer.

City and county salaries are not paid from state budgets. [/quote]
Yes but the governator is thinking of taking these funds as well.

There is no justification for salaries AS HIGH or higher than the private sector IN CONJUNCTION WITH gold plated retirement benefits.I mean, come on, retiring at 50 with 100% of your highest salary FOR LIFE?[/quote]
If you believe that, why are you still employed in the private sector?
Senior programmers often make 100-120K in San Diego, to 150K in Silicon Valley. An equivalent state job for a guy with similar experience would pay 60-75K. People ONLY take those public sector jobs because of benefits. Because public sector salaries suck.

Not L.A. city, I know line men working for LADWP making over 150K a year, same for fire men and police.
And yea I kick myself for not grabing one of these Jobs when I was young, I say if you are not going to really make something of your self (doctor etc…) then grab a city job while you are yong and stick with it, that would be my advice.
