Cal will open this fall. Teachers will be let go, classes will be cut, services will be curtailed. But Cal will open.
Among other things: the extent of the crisis has been systematically exaggerated by the very people who have conspired to bring it about. LIke Arnold himself. Who has spent the last several years complaining that the legislature isn't doing their job, when the legislators have been handing him budget after budget that he refuses to sign.
And the wasted money on special elections when they could just do what they have to do. Republicans refuse to negotiate, refuse to compromise, and then blame everybody but themselves.
Because they don't want the state to function. They want it to fail.
Of course they want it to fail. I can't imagine what their constituents will do if it does. They've been telling themselves, over and over, that they are independent, that they don't need what the government does. All nonsense, of course, California is dependent on major state-run public utilities: the farms as much as the cities. So, when that belief is proven false, then--?
