California going BROKE?

Forced unpaid vacation time? Is that the best that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger can come up with?

Two public employee unions are saying NO WAY and suing the Governator in an attempt to halt last weeks' executive order requiring all state employees to take 2 days off a month - without pay - which could affect up to 230,000 workers.

The measure comes as a last-ditch solution to California's widening budget crisis.

The lawsuit  filed by the Professional Engineers in California Government and the California Association of Professional Scientists - claims that only the Legislature can change the pay of workers contracted through the state.

A few months ago, the Governator tried to reduce pay all around, but it never took effect.

In response to the lawsuit filed with a Sacramento Superior Court, Arnold has asked for a couple of months to convince the Legislature to let him furlough employees.

A couple of months? When we've got what? 72 days until bankruptcy?

At Monday's press conference in LA, the Guvernator said, "I hate to lay off any state employees, may I remind you, because those are hardworking people and they all have to provide for their families. But we are running out of cash by February, so I have no other choice. California is on a track to a disaster the way it's going."

Wait, you mean Arnold isn't actually from the future? He didn't he see this coming? He's not here to save us?

We bet this is Skynet's fault!!!
