Gov Egghead and his merry band of liberal tax and spend democrats are the cause.

Half a Billion Dollars. That�s how much the California Teachers Association and the powerful Service Employees International Union have spent on California politics since 2000. The unions� return on that �investment�? A legislature totally beholden to them for political support and campaign contributions.

Here�s another mind-boggling number: Half a Trillion Dollars. That�s an estimate of the unfunded public pension liabilities racked up by California�s state and municipal governments due to overly generous pay and defined benefit pension plans lavished on unionized government employees.

Jim Lacy, former Chief Counsel for Technology at the U.S. Department of Commerce and General Counsel to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission, has been sounding the alarm. His new book, Taxifornia, lays out the numbers and illustrates them in horrifying detail, with stories you just can�t make up�like rank-and-file firefighters making $348,000 a year who can retire at age 55 at 90 percent of salary.
