California's budget has skyrocketed, leaving hardworking taxpayers the victims of our state government's outrageous tax and spend habit. The Reason Foundation recently published an excellent policy brief on this dire situation. Read it all here.

The Sacramento Bee has created a tax calculator for Californians to determine how much they will be negatively affected.

The Cato Institute has an interesting article regarding Gov. Schwarzenegger's request for federal bailout money.

Unemployment keeps rising in California: The Los Angeles times reports that 1 in 10 workers are now unemployed . How can they afford the tax increase?

Think the budget only increases your taxes? Think again! Due to Abel Maldonado, independent and third party voters face potential dienfranchisement in future general elections if his scheme passes.The LA Times discusses this little known aspect of the budget agreement.

Once upon a time, Arnold Schwarzenegger believed in a free economy and the freedom to choose. Watch this clip of him extolling the virtues of a free economy in 1990 and then ask yourself this: why doesn't Arnold want us to be free to choose?
