Looks like the Governor is going to punish you guys by shutting down the state on it's money making weekend.

I heard, on the radio, John and Ken that in the case of California, the threatening to close parks and libraries is a cheap shot. Pure drama to panic everybody: OMG, we can't let this happen!
Well, it turns out that parks and public services like libraries are extremely cheap to run. In the case of roadside rest areas, it's patently dishonest. They could do many things, cut out overtime for cops, defer interest payments on bonds, cease or postpone construction projects, real money savings solutions. In my city, they went to a four day week that city hall is open for business, closed Fridays. Saves a ton of money, but no, the governor came up with the same phony remedy, close the state parks. Total bullshit, pure politics.
