Part-Time Legislature?
A ballot initiative is in the works that would transform the California legislature from full-time to part-time. Less time to screw things up?? California legislators are the highest paid in the nation. They receive a daily expense stipend and the taxpayers pay for their cars. Nice perks. Normally, I wouldn't even think about criticizing someone's salary, but what are they doing that deserves the nation's highest legislator salaries?? Just asking. Check out the story on LBReport.com. Good idea? Bad Idea?

Amen to that...it's about time we return to a part-time legislature and return control back to the locals. Tax collection should occur at the local level for cities, counties, schools and special districts. Money should flow from locals to Sacramento NOT the other way around. Sacramento should be re-directed to focus on state infrastructure, etc.
