The California budget theoretically was presented to the
governor prior to the constitutional deadline. Actually it wasn't, the
democrat-socialist super-majority controlled legislature passed a fake,
place-holder budget and then pretended it was kosher. This gives the
governor very little time to go over it and exercise his line-item veto,
should he care to do so. In actuality Newsom wants to spend every
penny he can get and borrow and steal some more and spend that too.
That is how the democrat-socialists stay in power, they buy votes.
In
theory some of these government programs have strong accountability and
audit programs. In actuality this is bullshit. The state
High-Speed-Rail program, which is now about 300% over budget and has met
NONE of it's legally mandated benchmarks, is still running strong. It
is running into a hole in the ground and not one mile of functional
track exists, but it is sure as hell a good construction union job
program.
Calif. state
universities and colleges will get about $100 million to $160 million in
additional funding, which will (theoretically) be cut back in the
following two years, and then kicked back in again in 2027.
Home
health care workers are getting fucked some more, again. They were
SUPPOSED to get a healthy pay raise earlier this year. It was then
pushed back to July 1. It is now pushed back again to at least October,
and maybe until next year.
Climate change programs are being cut back by $9 billion to a paltry $54 billion.
There
is, however, plenty of money in the budget for health care for illegal
aliens and legal help for illegal aliens to fight deportation and
funding to continue the committee that is looking at paying reparations
to Black residents of the state whose remote ancestors may or may not
have been treated poorly in California, which by the way never was a
slave state.
The approved
budget is for $297.9 billion dollars. It relies on a meager $12 billion
from the money fairy to make those numbers. .
