Let's see...workforce to population is ~1/2...CA population is ~38 million...
Therefore, workers can expect $8.26 extra on their paychecks...wait...that's per year. It's an extra 16 cents per week. Whoopie! Who's buying? Make mine Juicy Fruit...check that...I'll have a stick of Doublemint!
Yeah, let's put poor children on the street so you can have an extra stick of gum per week.
The issue isnt what the population will save, its what the state will save, $157,000,000

Money that can be had FOR 16 CENTS PER WEEK!
Aren't you the same people who criticize Obama's tax credit of $13 per week as being "insignificant?"
I'd gladly pay an extra 16 cents rather than see poor children go hungry and homeless. Anyone who wouldn't is heartless and has some serious greed and insecurity issues.
Their parents/guardians will find another way to support them other than taxpayer funds (like getting a job).
Yes, because there are so many jobs being created in CA today.

If not theres always charity. They are ready and willing to help.
If charity were sufficient, there would be no need for welfare.

My main concern is whether or not there will be a corresponding tax cut to accompany the cult in welfare services. Perhaps it might
give productive people a reason to stay.
Oh yeah. Sixteen cents per week. What an incentive!

Do you live in California??? Now, I'm sure other states have this issue to, but there are FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE ON WELFARE THAT ARE ABLE BODIED. I know of 6 right off the top of my head that are getting food stamps and welfare while working under the table for cash.
Welfare needs to be completely done away with, then rebuilt from the ground up with new regulations and requirements, like drug testing and proof of looking for work.

Illegals have no right to anything in this country. If they starve, so be it, one less illegal to wory about. They don't even have a right to any charity. There used to be more charity when it wasn't the illegals taking it all so that the Americans didn't get any or very much less.

Feel free to send your $157,000,000 check to the state of California. If you dont, then you'd rather see poor children go hungry...
People and California's illegal immigrants on welfare flooding the neighboring states. It's not like all the citizens can get a job when illegal immigrants take so many of the jobs. OK, that will work.
If California rounded up and deported all their illegal imigrants, the real citizens would have jobs at living wages.
I'm ten miles from the NV/CA border. What's your point? I can read and do simple arithmetic.

I agree with eligibility requirements, and such requirements may already be in place. Even with these requirements, people will still find a way to scam the system, so don't worry, you'll still have an excuse to be so mad!!!!!

Try some basic arithmetic and get back to me.
