No state can afford to sustain the social programs that are in place.
they have become too expensive, and serve too few.
First step is to tell people on the welfare train that the last stop is coming up soon. Get a job.

Of course he did.. That takes away a MAJOR part of what is bankrupting HIS state and puts it on the federal government.. Just like Massachusetts can't WAIT until Health Care reform is passed.. Their program (the one Obama Adopted) is bankrupting their state too.

Or better yet, puts the health care costs of Californians (and Mas*holes) on the backs of the people in Montana, Wyoming, and North Dakota.. I'd have said Maryland, but our welfare programs are well on the way to bankrupting our state too.

And there in lies the paradox, Arnold has to know that its a lousy plan and dire results, but by endorsing, he gets it off his plate for the rest of his term if it goes through.

Paradox? How about the whole flock?

If he is smart enough to know then so is Obama, Pelsoi, Reid, Weiner, Waters and all the rest of them ####tards.

This is why the principle of the thing has GOT to be returned to; is a given idea an appropriate role for government in a free society?

The answer is NO when it comes to medical care for all. It is one thing, and bad enough, that we make exceptions for old people but, at least there is a decent rationale for it.

By 'giving' it to everyone, while ignoring the disaster the current entitlement programs are, is simply wrong and is not possible and not appropriate if it were possible.

Of course. If some idiot sitting at a computer all day with their high school education, like me, can see it, then they certainly can.

So I can only logically conclude that they WANT to bankrupt the whole country and destroy the Evil Empire. What other explanation could there possibly be?

Ed Zachary!!

I don't know what colleges or High Schools they graduated from, but it's not higher level math..

If a STATE can't run this program withouth going broke, there is no way in HELL a COUNTRY is going to do it. Well, unless we want a 40% tax, and inflation around 15% .. Not to include $5 - 8 gallon of gas, $20 for a pack of cigarettes, and $25 for a six pack of beer. (40% income tax won't cover it by itself.. they have to tax the hell out of EVERYTHING!)

That might make a good interview question...
