This is fraud and people should be prosecuted by the county for
criminal acts for misuse of taxpayer money. Not one will be
prosecuted, that's a guarantee. The bureaucracy protects their
people with slaps on the wrist. But this is the level
government in California has descended to, and it's not just at the
local level. Sacramento at the state level is full of nonsense
like this. Just ask the Speaker of the Assembly and his sidekick
in the Senate, Don Perata, both of whom are under scrutiny for possible
misuse of either state funds or campaign donations. It's
disgusting.)
