In the world today, after a bill is passed and signed into law, comes the lawsuits. The ultimate power is not our elected officials, it is the courts. Courts run our firefighting efforts, our water, our forests, schools, roads, prisons and police departments.
If you really thought that those we elect run our State, you must be a government school graduate. In the real world, everything gets litigated--including the budget.
That is why even with a revised budget, no one knows for sure how much we will spend or who is in control.
This much we do know, as of today, August 10, 2009, the deficit of the State of California is over $15 billion--by Thanksgiving it could be close to $30 billion. Part of the reason? Lawsuits.
