Just listening to these crazy Santa Ana teacher’s we dont have to quess why this state is going bankrupt.
Entitlements to the underserved (Foreign nationalists)state and public workers is out of controland just plain wacko.
We as the taxpayer’s have said no to the props and now we need to hold our representive’s accountable for using tax money to make their rich friends richer!!
Hello Michelle and thank you for posting your opinion. I see that you have made the rounds and I find you to be very refreshing. ALL opinions are welcome on this blog. Continue to visit and post often.
California Government is pro-spend, pro-tax … & anti-business.
As they continue to drive out businesses & destroy jobs … who’s going to pay for all of their “entitlement” programs?
Any wonder why we’re in this mess?
Cheers jill!
Nobody wants to say it, but a big part of the reason were in this mess is the voters.
I don’t want to rail on about an “uniformed electorate” but rather the people who actually thought that a B move actor could provide real leadership.
To add insult to injury, we tried it once before a few decades earlier and look where that got us. I will say though at least Reaganb still had most of his marbles then and he did himself justice by running several times to earn a place on the ticket.
You are so right getAgrip!!
I had to lay off all my employee’s. I could no longer afford the workmans comp, liablity, ect…
So now myself and my husband are working round the clock with three babies at home.
I just learned that John moorlach gave over 1m from the Caloptima funds to a Non-profit called CaliforniaKids, that gives free insurance or low cost insurance to employers that hire Illegal immigrants for their employee’s. I could not afford to give my employee’s health insurance because i was paying over 10,000 for workcomp.
It is just riduclous(Thanks Santa Ana School teachers now i can spell riduclous right):)
I plan to go before the Orange County Supervisors, watch out for me, cause it will be good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In general your joe soap Americans are the nicest most trust worthy people i have ever met.
I believe that thanks to people like john and ken the talk show guys. Americans are starting to see the light!! I dont know if many of you know Jesse Peterson?? He said to me, “if they call you a racist,Ignorant,bigot”, keep talking because your telling the truth!!
Americans don’t be afraid to rock the gravy boat, because its really really fun!!:)
Oh duplo, quit it. Arnold is not the problem. The problem is and always has been an out of control, spend-a-holic legislature that can’t do any thing but kowtow to the public employee unions, and public employee unions that can’t say anything except “more”!
Arnold, “The Blovinator”, is part of the problem. He’s another tax and spend liberal with an “R” after his name. He lied with all of his talk about “blowing up the boxes”, etc.

What do you think?
Very Good!!
The problem is that we can’t trust any of them.
The orange county supervisors are all Republican’s.
Go look at the Agenda for may!! They want to give millions of dollars to social welfare program’s. ie Healthy Smiles. Free dental care to the underserved,vunerable!!
none of my employees had dental insurance that encludes me!!
They just commissioned a business called the providence community service corp!! (for millions)
This business is in the business of telling the underserved,vunerable how to get social services ie medical,calworks,!!
They even (this one makes me laugh) have a socical worker in the jails telling inmates, the underserved,vunerable how to get!! guess what??? medical,calworks,housing!!
Lucy Dunn Orange county business council on the board of directors for a Not For Profit housing for the underserved,vunerable
Its all a big scam and we are the ones that are being scammed the small businesses and American worker’s and i would also like to say the legal residents
What a shame, California was a great place.
But read what is posted. to suceed in California, do not make any money, be a “Non-Profit” (really non tax paying)
Keep in mind that more than 70% of the California voters don’t care enough to vote in the last election. The future direction of this State was just decided by less than 20% of the eligible voters!
i just think that people are so burned out with
the corruption. Prop 187 was passed with over 60% majority, the California liberal courts over turned it!!
What needs to happen is that people start calling the respresentives on the corruption. Go to these board meeting’s let them know we can see what they are up too!!
When i went to the Healthy Families board meeting to let them know that i was aware of them using money to fund ridiculous programs like HABLA they were shock i was there. I dont think a memeber of the public has ever questioned them!!
Now on their websit their access to their agenda and minutes has been dismantled
And yes, Non-profits in orange county is a scam.
Coalition of community clinics funded with prop 10 money, not free to the underserved and the vunerable no they take in a huge profit from medical(thanks to caloptima)
quess who sits on this board?? Lou Correa!!
Kim Cripe CFO CHOC sits on the board of Healthy Families and so does Dr Maria Minon both give lots of money to their own Non-profits whether it be Choc Hospital itself or Choc Clinics. (also not free!! anyone want to say MEDICAL,
By the way Dr. Maria Minon also sits on the board of Latina Access that she funds also with tax money!!
Michelle, you will find that the two women you mention were founding members on the OC Children and Families Commission (First 5) and that a lot of that money ($ 50 million a year, approx.) in OC is steered to health programs. Have not checked to see if they are still Commissioners, but I would not be surprised. Of course, it is the same industry that is behind national health care or health insurance for all. The over-riding issue is money – follow the money —-
Casual Observer
I am all over it!!
Who needs to read a bloody corruption novel, just go look into your local government and commssions:) O yeah school districts!!!!!
So what do you suggest? No schools? No garbage pick-up? No police? Private armies for the rich and starvation for the poor and middle class?
The three richest states (Connecticut, New Jersey, and Massachusetts) are the heaviest taxed. They’re also the most resilient in these tough times. States like California that hamstrung themselves with stupid legislation are the ones getting burned.
I know this comment probably won’t be published, but you should read
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/21/us/21calif.html?_r=1&scp=6&sq=california&st=cse
to see how California’s bone-headed politics have caused the state to go broke.
Have fun out there without schools, cops, and sewers!
I suggest civilian oversite!!
I don’t know what your reading but the states you mention have a huge problem with the tax payers leaving these state’s, including California.
Pay for quality not quantity!!
Help the poor within reason, but we can not develop a socialistic state to help Mexicos exciles. If you have read any of my post’s on the Supervisors of orange county then you can see if you give Governement money, they will seek out the poor to give it too! WHY?? because it grow’s government! The governement does not care if the poor are citizen’s or not.
It is not a mistake that Santa Ana has the largest population of poor illegal’s from Mexico encircle federal and state building’s.
People wonder why the federal and state government allow’s Mexico’s poor to enter this country with such ease, while they restrict people who wait in line to enter this country legally. “It is because the government grow’s with the needy and not with doctor’s and engineers”.
California state government has grown vastly, why!! they have had a wonderful influx of the poor to look after. More socical services, more teacher’s to teach the vunerable and underserved, Habla,first 5,211,language experts,nurses,funding non-profits. They got bigger and bigger and bigger and then one day, “shit were out of money”,
Too much government and entitlements and not enough taxpayers!!
You can not make a poor man rich by making the rich poor!
