Editorial Criticizes Furloughs

The San Jose Mercury News is running an editorial criticizing the decision to furlough employees of the state of California who do disability determination work for the Social Security Administration. As the editorial says, "Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is clinging to the ridiculous notion that being 'fair' to all employees is more important than what's best for the people they serve — even if it costs California millions of dollars."

  1. I am not down on CA's unions in general. But, this is exactly the kind of issue they bring up. Maybe the Mercury and the Chronic can stir up some interest in this. You'd think Boxer and Feinstein would be on this.
