Where Did the Money Go?

The Governator proposed his budget this morning.

I don't suppose it surprised anyone that there's not much money. From my memory of Consumer Education back in high school, that's what happens when you spend money and you don't make any.

He wants to cut school funding, release 'low-risk' prisoners and close parks.

The proposal immediately triggered howls of protest from lawmakers across the political spectrum and among some of the most powerful interest groups in the Capitol. The governor said he hopes to start a debate among Californians about what services they want from state government and how to pay for them.

Or maybe he's just trying to propose something so horrible, people will beg him to raise taxes....Naw.

See what parks are closing. There goes Sutter's Fort, and the less acknowledged State Indian Museum.
