Time to fix the debt problem at the national, state and household levels
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
It's a lot easier to attack the incumbant Governor than to straighten out a multi billon dollar budget mess. That's what Arnold is discovering right now, undoubtedly, as his efforts to bring California back to fiscal sanity face potentially fatal roadblocks.
California has the same problem that the nation does: too much spending, not enough fiscal restraint. It create serious debt at the national level, and Washington seems no more discplined than California at solving the problem.
As I often point out, the same problem is also reflected at the individual level, where credit card debt and personal bankruptcy is at an all time high. It's no surprise, then, that government spending reflects the fiscal philosophy of its people.
They say that every Democracy gets the leaders it deserves. Ultimately, this means that as long as Californians engage in freewheeling spending, their Governor will probably end up doing the same. Because even as the Governor, you can't fight the will of tens of millions of Californians who still want their grossly misnamed "government benefits."
