My View: California deserves a stimulus package (D-Karen Bass, California Assembly Speaker)
A quick and effective stimulus for California would be to send all the illegal Mexicans, freeloading on the system, home for the Holidays. One way.
I got a STIMULUS for California.
Sell some OFFSHORE OIL DRILLING RIGHTS...$$$$$$$$s
Repeal the Law that prohibits NEW REFINERIES being Built.
Self Inflicted wounds still need Bandages.
California could erase most of its budget deficit by offering non-judicial fines for most petty, and some serious by non-destructive offenses.
People could go before a judge on the typical route, or they could pay a non-appeal administrative fine and walk out the door.
How many people would by $30,000 for a first time (only) DUI with no accident or injury? Instead of doing time in jail, losing their car or at least their license for six months, maybe being fired and losing their home, possible divorce and insurance through the roof, they can just lay down the money, once, and walk out the door.
Stimulus for you, stimulus for me! Stimulus for everyone! YIPPEE!!!
I deserve some bailout money too.
NOT TO MENTION FUNDING WIC, EDUCATION, AND MEDICAL EXPENSES FOR MILLIONS OF MEXICAN NATIONALS.
Can't leave that out, folks.
Stimulus?
With a cattle prod, maybe.
Ridding itself of millions of illegal aliens would go a long way to solving California’s fiscal woes.
Ah. good ol kalifornia. The model of not how to run a state government.
I heard Arnold proposed a pet tax. The 9% tax would be on vet bills when a pet (probably livestock are included) has vet service.
Why business puts up with such a hostile climate is beyond understanding.
California can go stimulate itself
***Speaker Bass wrote a column in the Sacramento Bee today calling for a “stimulus package” for California. Her solution? Give the state more federal welfare.***
How about a swift kinck in the a$$. Off your A$$ and on your feet! Out of the shade and into the heat!
Pick those Tomatoes! Grab those Mellons! Don’t like wetbacks? Take their jobs and send them home!
Complain and you will spend a night in the box!
regular, middle grade, premium.
get rid of your stupid-ass "summer blends", "Santa Ana Blends", "Northern California blends", "my dog doesn't crap on Tuesday blend", etc...
California is (it appears to me) is so unreasonable on this...
"Oh, but, we have winds and temp and rain and floods and fires".
All of which have nothing to do with "gas blends".
I live in Colorado Springs at 6k feet above sea level.
I go to Dallas down to 1K no problems.
I go to Pikes Peak summit at 14kft , no problem...
We do fine with 7-11, King Soopers, Western, Mom and Dad everyother pump. 3 blends. that's all you get..oh, deisel too.
What is the problem in California?
California is so screwed. They shouldn't get a dime from my tax money.
Oh wait....the emission mandates are required by the EPA. As requested by..who?..California..
Your legislation in California screwed the wonder Golden state.
Go bitch to Boxer and Feinstein...They're the ones who get the payoffs and reap the benefits...
I believe with Boxer being a cousin or inlaw to pantsuits, and Feinstein having a hnusband who makes more money off of military contracts then Vice President Chaney ever did...think about that....
Is this the answer? No..But it's a start...
The only way they should get ANY money is if they submit a budget to Congress to show exactly where all the money is going...especially Nancy Pelousy.
As a 5th generation So. Californian I say to Ms Bass, go straight to hell!
