If there is mismanagement, then the federal government has a bigger share of the blame than local governments, but playing the blame game doesn't solve problems. I'd rather think of solutions.

Here is the CA budget proposal:

CA is a large state with 5 major cities and a lot of infrastructure to support. It seems you know exactly what to do if you were in charge and you can guarantee success. I encourage you to present your budget proposal in Sacramento and perhaps run for office.
I’m not pretending to know the solution. Even forgetting the federal land, you have a big problem. It’s not my responsibility to figure out how to fix it...it’s your state’s and they’ve done a pisspoor job, like they have with your jobs. That’s all im saying.
