California
budget beset by problems
Due to a number of agreements
Schwarzenegger approved to benefit the state earlier in his tenure
as governor, he now is beset with an expanding state deficit
that could surpass $10 billion, the Los Angeles Times said Saturday.
Former Santa Barbara councilwoman Hannah-Beth
Jackson said Schwarzenegger's prior deals, along with various
state constitutional prohibitions he championed, have left California
in a serious financial predicament.
"We have just tightened the noose
around our neck instead of figuring out how to get out of the
noose in the first place," Jackson said. "We have all
these spending requirements, and they end up working against
each other. We can't take from this, we can't take from that;
we've become immobilized."
