10 Easy to Cut Items from California's Budget
Klaus Varley
Here in California, a lot of people are criticizing the govenator for proposing to cut health care programs for poor children and other wasteful government expenditures. Why doesn't he raise taxes on corporations? Or the wealthy?
"Or the wealthy, what?" I say.
"Or raise taxes on the wealthy," you might retort.
"I see," I might conclude the tangential interlude with.
To help Schwartzenegger...Shwartzenegger...no...hmmm...(I'm not going to look this up, but even if I get it right, will spell check recognize it? Can you spell Schwartzinegger - that's definitely not right - without looking it up? Really? Sure. Yeah, two can play at that game - it's spelled Schwarzenegger, and spell check DOES recognize it.) to help our the Governor, below are ten easy cuts that I'm pretty sure will solve the California budget crisis WITHOUT raising taxes.
Get rid of...
1. Schools - too boring
2. Roads - too long
3. Cops - too mean
4. Firemen - too good looking
5. Water - too wet
6. Power - too powerful
7. Internets - too confusing
8. Libraries - too quiet
9. Sidewalks - too hot
10. Hospitals - too necessary
But not weed.
Seriously, Gov'ner.
