Why we are Bankrupt

Long Beach, CA

Please vote NO

This porkbarrel nonsense has to stop. These corrupt punks have bankrupted our state and our children for years to come.

They have enough money to fund these necessary water projects. The environmentalists have bankrupted the Central Valley by wasting the water we have. They have brought 40% unemployment.

We must all remember that government money comes from only one place, out of your pocket and mine. There is no other source. So either directly or indirectly, you and I pick up the check for any government spending. Our elected officials are supposed to see to it that our money is spent wisely, and without waste, fraud, and abuse. Are you satisfied with their performance? I am most certainly not. This proposal is but one more example. We certainly need our water problems fixed, it is a critical need. But $11.1 billion is not needed to acheive what we need done.
