California faces its day of fiscal reckoning

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The day of reckoning that California has been warned about for years has arrived. The longest recession in generations and the defeat this week of a package of budget-balancing ballot measures are expected to lead to state spending cuts so deep and so painful that they could rewrite the social contract between California and its citizens. They could also force a fundamental rethinking of the proper role of government in the Golden State.

... here is the plan ...
... toll boots and charges on all freeways ...
... 3 cents per mile charge ...
... $1.00 per gallon gas state tax ...

... same services, half the real estate for management ...
... same HR, just fit in smaller spaces ...
... pharaonic offices are out of time ...
