EASY FIX! :

Immediately require all persons that can be classified as a “Public Employee” to purchase their own Health Insurance from the “California Covered Exchange”.

All Taxpayer funds that we were using on Inferior,Expensive Health Insurance can now be spent on our Roads and Highways. The Increased enrollment in the exchange will be more than enough to cover the massive welfare State they Covet.

Public Employee Affordable Care Enrollment Act
PEACE Act

Ptoblem Solved!

Perhaps that “hole” in the Medi-Cal funding wouldn’t exist if the Governor and Legislature hadn’t covered all of the illegal population flooding into California through the open border. Medi-Cal has been floundering for years and the extra burden has sunk the ship with all the $$.

And that debate would go something like this…

“We need to squeeze more money out of our peasants”

“No, you’re wrong! We need to squeeze a lot more money out of them!”

There should be no bickering about how “excess revenues” should be spent. The California Constitution requires the state to adequately fund K-12 public education. The Capistrano Unified School District is not receiving sufficient funding to provide the State’s mandated minimum curriculum. Students who cannot fundraise for art music and science have no art music and science. The States new education funding law limits K-12 per pupil funding to 2007-08 levels + inflation. In 2007-08 state revenues were $105 billion- today they are in excess of $117 billion. Slide Presentation to CUSD Board of Trustees January 27, 2016
