rachsandl Ugandan government 😄
rachsandl Hiw about drop his 20%
rachsandl It’s not a “Coronavirus “ deficit, California has been broke for years, and it’s there own mismanaged government that created it.
rachsandl Propose and doing is not the Same
rachsandl 15 trillions Plus all stimulus in last decade to wipe out. Many contries to need regular doses of stimulas to survive.
rachsandl Great starting place, GovCalifornia. Public employees are grossly overcompensated, especially those in management positions and 'first responders.' Cap salaries at 80 percent of average wages earners. End the asinine perks, and end COS increases for retired employees.
rachsandl Ha... may be it’s time to re-open the state.
rachsandl The CEO of my company took a 50% pay cut and most of the C -suite as well. We all took a small cut. And he wants to just take a 10% equal to all the workers. He is so out of touch.
rachsandl A 10% pay cut will not affect him as much as it will for 90% of other state workers.
rachsandl 🤔🤔🤔..... the state is mostly shut down except for gov workers, emergency services and HIGH TAX paying sectors (booze/cannabis)... GavinNewsom if you’re gonna keep the private sector portion of state closed, furlough 90% of state workers-bet you’ll be back open STAT
rachsandl Government workers continue to receive a regular paycheck while the rest of us, forced to bow to our government overlords, prepare for the bread lines.
rachsandl I don't like much, if anything, about GavinNewsom but if this is true, and he is proposing a pay cut to himself, that is points in my book... It doesn't really make me like him much more, but...
rachsandl Or, he could ask the federal government to send the illegal aliens back to their country of origin.
rachsandl California is broke... it already was broke before corona
rachsandl How about no pay. Like small business owners.
rachsandl Now he's thinking on the right track. Shows that millionaire's are willing to take a pay cut for the good of the state they are in control of.
rachsandl He's worth 20 million. So, taking a 'pay cut' is really just good publicity.
rachsandl The tax hikes will be massive.
rachsandl
rachsandl He's a hero.
rachsandl 7/10. perhaps
