Budget
The California budget has become a monster. It needs to be fixed. We can not continue to run up high uncontrollable deficits and function. There has to be middle ground of cutting our budget and not taxing the people of our states to the point that they can no longer afford to live here. We need to focus on reforms to curb waste and fraudulent use of our state programs. These our tough times and everybody is feeling it. We need to right the ship and then prepare for next problem area instead of hiding our head in the sand during the boom years like the major parties did.
"The Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations ... This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution." -John Adams
