California’s Fiscal Emergency a Microcosm of Americans’ Debt Concerns

“It used to be that people had vague concerns about the deficit. They knew there was one, but it didn’t seem to really matter,â€

I suggested a great revenue generating plan to the Governator, charge each company that hires illegal aliens $1000 per month per illegal alien. The only problem of course is Obama will sue to stop this 'oppression of his chosen people''.

As a Californian who is paying high taxes I have been watching. I never was a fan of Schwarzenegger, but I have to give him his due. I have watched as he has had to fight our liberal hyphenated politicans in our legislature. He has had to walk a fine line and takes a lot of heat for his stance on issues, but if you pay close enough attention you can see the why's and wherefores. Believe me if he didn't hold our legislature in check California would already be Mexico.

I know one thing is for sure I don't see myself ever voting for any hypenated American for any office again.

As a New Yorker that used to pay high taxes I totally agree with your first and last sentences.

(No longer paying high taxes because I can't get a job!)
