Please sue them or else get an injunction. This Budget is illegal. Items you haven't mentioned. The State cut Social Security checks by $80.00 a month. Some have lost all the medical benefits. Denti-Cal, Dential services for the poor and disabled, will only pay for extractions. I worked just like everybody else -FICA.

I kept telling everyone that CA's liberal policies were going to bite everyone in the a** one day. We need to go back to our roots and learn to live without credit. We cannot keep buying goods and services with IOU's. We the citizens should have let the system crash when it had the chance to back in the end of 08, and then maybe right now we could have been on our way to rebuilding the system instead of trying to repair it, which is costing even more to American tax payers. It seems to me like the bailouts set the precedent of not letting our big corporate brothers fail when infact it is their own greed that let us down this disastrous path.

We don't need leaders to guide our everyday liives. When we learn to cope with everyday problems without having the gov't intervene, then maybe that will be the day we can have a democratic goverment working for its people and not the other way around.

I heard the liberal had ways to solve the problem.

1) Raise the sales tax.

2) Tax the rich.

Could always suspend road work for a year, unless it is an emergency.
