The Davis cuts have only begun to take effect. His last budget mandated sweeping cuts which will result in thousands of layoffs and other cuts. But it still leavces a 8-9 billion shortfall plus 4 billion Arnold is putting back because of the car tax. So 12-13 billion which Arnold will now need to cut or take in. Without higher taxes, how? 50% of the growth in spending has been in education and Arnold has vowed not to touch it. The rest is in health care, prisons and first responders. Legalizing soft drugs could relieve pressure on the prisons but otherwise what solution is there? Refuse emergency health care to the sick, injured and dying? Fire thousands of cops and firemen? Release dangerous felons back onto the streets?
