With no budget, California to cut 20,000 state jobs

Too bad they will just get in line for Obama-nomics 'stimulus' jobs or plain old welfare (POW).  The lucky ones could grab the microphone at an Obama traveling salvation show, sob a story or whine about some personal circumstance and the Obama disciples of fairness will see that their every wish is granted with full media coverage.

February 12, 2009: Hope 'n' Change Update - Fort Myers Miracle 

I think a good target would be for States to cut 20,000 jobs per month until there were so few of them that they couldn't spend more than the state takes in if they worked 24 hours per day at it.  Watch though, some enterprising loon will probably snatch up all the available former bureaucratic tax parasites and start an out-sourcing firm that specializes in providing government bureaucracy.  Not much will have changed at first but eventually the forces of free enterprise will force efficiency on those new private bureaucracies.
