Jerry Brown announces new cuts to state spending

CA Gov. Jerry Brown announces new cuts to state spending. “Governor announces automatic cuts due to tax revenue shortfall – to the tune of $1B. Students, the developmentally disabled and libraries among those affected.” No scare tactics here! Good thing he’s not going after the salaries of all those politicians! Or a freeze on raises for government employees. Whew!

  • "Failure of government programs prompts more determined efforts, while the loss of liberty is ignored or rationalized away."
    "The more government spends, the more freedom is lost."
    - Ron Paul

  • I visited a couple of the big UC campuses in the last few months - the lawns were well mowed, the trees all trimmed, the huge gold plated buildings sparkled in the morning dew and the highly paid union employees were driving their cadillacs back home at 3:30 in the afternoon.

  • So it finally occurred to Gov. Moonbeam that Mexfornia is even more broke then the last time He bankrupted the state?

    • I don't think so. Brown is like all liberal progressives. They never understand that what they are doing is wrong. They just feel they havv'nt done enough of it yet.

  • But we can afford sanctuary state measures for illegals. Thanks for voting this son of a bitch back into office Kalifornia. You deserve all he brings you Ass hats.

    • Detroit was a sh!thole when I visited there in 85, it's gotta be really good now. Especially this time of year.

  • Too bad Bush and the Goovenator screwed things up so bad. They have wrecked Mexifornia up real good . ---- Oblivious and her kind.

    • Maybe, but you did notice that California put Jerry Brown back in the statehouse? The same man who effed up California by setting in motion many of the things that are are killing the Golden State when he was governor back in the day. California is a bankrupt state, it's now morally bakrupt because of corruption, & the MSM is cheering it on. They deserve what they get, but they will try to drag the rest of the nation down with them.

      • You are correct. Moonbeam started the ball rolling for the demise of California. Some may not know it but California was once a very business friendly State. Steel Mills, Aluminum, tires, autos, planes... All kinds of heavy industry that is the base for all other jobs. Now... Kalifornia is a hemp farm and basket weaving is the main educational pursuit. The liberal fools keep trying to raise taxes and none will discuss the real problem, that being the crushing liberal regulations. Until they decide to get rid of CARB, AQMD and all the other liberal agencies, California will continue to slide.

        • That's OK, Moonbeam just signed his death warrant. Cutting the sacred cow programs will either get a recall petition started or get him defeated in the next election.

          • There are already groups working towards his recall, because of the Dream Act. I'm part of two of them.
