70 billion dollars/63,000 employees = more than most people make in a year, no?

The bonds aren't all due in one year, either. The long and short of it is that the California legislature upped spending by 40% in the last few years. Mainly in raises for, and more, employees. That is the place to cut, cut, cut. But they won't do it, and you are going to be stuck with the results as they twist and turn in Sacramento to CYA.

Arnold's motto should be, "Cut 10,000 employees and 10% of the salaries!" And make all additional Health care costs the responsiblity of the employees.

There seems to be a major lack of ability to face reality on the part of the Legislature.
