Yay, let's just keep adding reasons to justify our new CA 10% sales tax!
:vomit:
Good gracious... we have the worst public education, public transit (aside from SF's Bart) and terrible public service. But we now claim the Union's highest VAT!
Naw, I'm really just pissed at all the voters who passed these stupid, misdirected ballots (the infeasible high speed train, for one) that include mandatory spending... but this 14-kid disaster isn't helping our $41 billion deficit.

That is horse sh**!. Not only did she get over on the CA taxpayers, but now she has successfully preyed on the stupid, bleeding hearts of the U.S. with her damn website. I hope that she goes broke again and her children are removed from the home and placed in a more stable environment.
Accoding to a poll by CNN a few days ago 30% of people felt sorry for her and would help her out. Apparently, there are enough idiots out there to make you a millionaire.

After I posted this I decided to take a quick look at our states budget in Va. and with a quick search this is waht I found.
2008 to 2010 38 billion
2006 to 2008 36 billion
2004 to 2006 32 billion
Now I went back 10 years
1998 to 2000 21 billion
So in just 10 years the state almost doubled its budget but I fail to see anything the sate has really done to improve itself by doubling its budget in this short time frame. If anything roads are falling apart, schools are under achieving, and I could go on and on about everything else that is actually getting worse despite doubling spending. So I guess the only thing that is happening is that the state is waisting twice as much of our tax dollars as the did ten years ago. Oh and now we are looking at a budget deficet of over 2 billion and they are talking about cut backs in school and other services. I ask what services.
I'd bet that each of us could pull up your states budget and find the same thing with the same results.
