LA Times: Schwarzenegger unveils austere budget plan
Schwarzenegger outlined a stark vision Friday of a California that would no longer lend a helping hand to some of its poorest and neediest citizens, proposing a budget that would eliminate the state's welfare-to-work program and most child care for the poor.

A lot of people at the bottom of the food chain in the UK lose their self respect . This does not seem to happen in America , call them mugs but they try to run faster to keep the American dream in sight up an escalator which is going down .
Maybe we can get him to come over here show the politicians how to make us to take our medicine .
