"Calif. plan will close $42b budget gap" by Associated Press | February 20, 2009
SACRAMENTO - The California Legislature approved a plan yesterday to close a $42 billion budget deficit after an epic impasse that involved several all-night sessions, sending Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger a package of bills that raises taxes and cuts spending....
Didn't Arnold recall a guy for exactly this type of thing?
Nothing I love more than a dink-shit hypocrite fascista!
"Now, instead of worrying every day only about IOUs and about red ink, we can start moving California forward once again. This action to solve our $42 billion deficit was difficult but courageous and just what California needs," he said. "This is the perfect medicine for our ailing economy, and it will boost public confidence in California, reassure the financial community, and allow us to start selling bonds and rebuild our state."
What a LIAR!!!!! INCREASING TAXES and CUTTING SPENDING so you can BORROW MORE is a DISASTER!!! How about CUTTING TAXES and SPENDING and NOT BORROWING instead, Arnie?
*************
The package contains $12.8 billion in tax increases, including a 1 percent hike in the state sales tax, a boost in the personal income tax rate, and a higher vehicle license fee. It also includes $15.1 billion in spending cuts, mostly to education, and $11.4 billion in borrowing....
Where do you start?
Yup, TAXES UP EVERYWHERE! These politicians, they are all the same!!!! The D or the R doesn't mean shit!
Yeah, the SPENDING CUTS are in the SCHOOLS, of course!!! TAX GIVEAWAYS to the WEALTHY and CORPORATIONS are NEVER a CONCERN!
And that $12 BILLION in BORROWING will COST YOU MORE, taxpayers, because of the INTEREST YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY to BANKS!!!!
