Streeeeeeeeeetch.

but enjoying a well earned retirement!

Only if you include ALL the part-timers… fulltime troughers average $150K+; $200K+ for “public safety” because they are heros’ and deserve!

The diverse Kali population distrusts banks and government…..they see no reason to pay huge payroll taxes and fees, workers comp costs, fed and state taxes….

Without the grey market Kali would collapse…

According to UnionWatch, it’s $102,000. And they had to stretch to come up with that.

Also, few journos note, when mentioning California’s unemployment rate, that we have fewer government workers per capita than all but four other states.

No kidding, we cannot AFFORD any more because CA government employees are averaging $200K per year in compensation. Highest compensated public employees in the nation.

“And few journos outside of the Sacramento Bee and U-T San Diego cite how poorly California does in the alternative federal measure of poverty that is adjusted for cost of living.
When that is factored in, the Golden State has by far the highest poverty rate in the U.S. at around 23 percent.”

Also, few journos note, when mentioning California’s unemployment rate, that we have fewer government workers per capita than all but four other states.

AND, average pay for California state workers is HIGHEST of all the states.

But:

“when you take into consideration the state’s higher cost of living and compare public employee pay to the state’s overall personal income, California’s rank is below average at #35.”

The entire country has imploded. Greed and mismanagement are the root causes, starting with the public sector and Wall Street, the two BIGGEST threats to the poor and middle class of Amerika today.
