Schwarzenegger Declares Fiscal State of Emergency

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger declared a state of emergency over the state's finances on Wednesday, raising pressure on lawmakers to negotiate a state budget that is more than a month overdue and will need to close a $19 billion shortfall.

The deficit is 22 percent of the $85 billion general fund budget the governor signed last July for the fiscal year that ended in June, highlighting how the steep drop in California's revenue due to recession, the housing slump, financial market turmoil and high unemployment have slashed its all-important personal income tax collection.

In the declaration, Schwarzenegger ordered three days off without pay per month beginning in August for tens of thousands of state employees to preserve the state's cash to pay its debt, and for essential services.

I can't say I know enough about California politics to provide you with a detailed answer, I live in NJ (not that I'm that up on Jersey politics)...but I know enough to tell you that the financial crisis that California faces is complex, and can't be blamed on any one group.

101 is like the fucktard in every group that's the first to yell "WITCH!!" only his witch is "liberals".

It's like a reflex. It's pretty funny. He's not the sharpest cat out there, so you gotta wonder...who programmed this guy? He goes off rather predictably, and it seems to be a reflex.

Who programmed you, 101? Is your dad Rush Limbaugh or something?

Amusing when the only reason we aren't in the same dire straights is a guy with an r next to his name.

Christie isn't saving us from anything. The moves he's making now will be crippling this state in the years to come.

I'm moving, dude. Jersey is a shithole anymore (politically, and economically), and fattie boy's only making it suck harder.

He's a serious fuckup. Wait and see what his moves bring.

What everyone here in Short Attention Span Theater seems to miss is that the majority of what these idiots do often doesn't become apparent until years after they've been voted out (and they're usually voted out rather angrily over something that essentially was caused by their predecessor, ironically enough).

I love politics.
