After years of mismanagement and corruption, a California city is cutting it's entire government. Presumably this also has to do with the California fiscal crisis that has drained cities of funds and revenue.

This is going to be happening all over Cali. Cities dismantling their local governments, filing bankruptcy, etc... everyone is broke.

Pretty small city for $3.6 million annual expenses, isn't it? 100 employees for 1.2 mi.²?

Sly · 06-23-2010, 08:48 AM

30,000 total population, maybe 100 employees isn't bad.

If I spend more money than I make I'm fucked. I can fudge it for a little bit but I'm fucked. Governments local, state or national aren't immune from this basic fact.

The sad truth of what happens when you have an entire state run by Liberals.

Sounds like a win for city residents. Big loss for city bureaucrats.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants think about that
