California uber alles
Martin Hutchinson / July 31, 2010, 0:12 IST
California: California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is aiming the big guns at the state's financial crisis. His declaration of a fiscal state of emergency should usefully focus hapless legislators' minds. Enforced worker furloughs attack the principal problem; the number of state employees and their pay and benefit costs. Since California already has high taxes, only ferocious action on spending will avoid a Greek-like tragedy.

California: California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is aiming the big guns at the state's financial crisis. His declaration of a fiscal state of emergency should usefully focus hapless legislators' minds. Enforced worker furloughs attack the principal problem; the number of state employees and their pay and benefit costs. Since California already has high taxes, only ferocious action on spending will avoid a Greek-like tragedy.

The furloughs Schwarzenegger unleashed are for three Fridays a month beginning in August for all state employees except firemen and police officers. This constitutes a renewal of a policy implemented for the fiscal year that ended in June. The short weeks will help preserve cash that would otherwise run out in October, thus delaying the point at which the state is forced to issue IOUs for payment.

American state governments are in great difficulty from this deep and prolonged recession, since all but one are obliged to balance their current spending budgets. California had relatively only the thirteenth largest budget gap to fill for 2010-11; Nevada, Illinois and New Jersey had gaps that were significantly larger.

The trouble is that California and its municipalities have consistently expanded spending faster than state output for several decades; its state and local spending has increased since 2000 from 18.2 per cent of state GDP to a projected 25.5 per cent. At that level, taxes struggle to keep up. Consequently California's credit rating is the lowest of all 50 states.

The spending increase has been caused by both expanding government functions and increased state employee remuneration and benefits. Employment costs for state and local government employees nationwide have increased 6.5 percentage points faster than those for private sector employees since 2001. California has a particular problem from over-generous state pension legislation passed in 1999, which can allow retirement after 22 years service and has produced an actuarial deficit estimated recently at $500 billion. California needs long-term solutions to its funding problems, but those are unlikely before November gubernatorial elections. Thankfully, Schwarzenegger's enforced austerity puts the pain where it belongs and should ensure the electorate is fully aware of the problem, its causes, and the potential solutions available. That leaves the choice between austerity and default firmly with California's voters.

[postiga08] 26/7/2010 09:53

[azalea] 23/7/2010 14:10

IC - At 31p "a cheap buy",... with upside still in its shares.

[azalea] 16/7/2010 07:47

Reinforced by director purchases and the latest numbers, I believe we could be onto a winner here. Numis(15/7), EVO(11/6) and KBC Peel Hunt(14/7) are all giving buy/ADD reccs.

RNS - Quarterly fund valuations.

Looks like 'The Mall' and 'X Leisure' have both INCREASED IN VALUE BY 10% !!! just in the last quarter.

That's 10% in just 3 months - EXCELLENT STUFF.

Daniel - how many prop co sites have you posted this blatant ramp on? This is the third time I've read it and frankly, I'm now bored.

Tip - The next greatest event in the world is the London Olympics. OTE is well positioned to capitalise on the event. This is one of the very few property companies in the LSE that have successfully refinanced and paid down its debts without dilutions to shareholders. I expect a very good result this week and a positive outlook from one of the best management on around in the real estate sector.

[postiga08] 09/7/2010 10:53

i hope so....maybe i should top up, or maybe see if we go below 30p 1st

[dnfa1975] 08/7/2010 17:44

bidder in the wings?

[azalea] 08/7/2010 14:53

When you think of the great height the share price fell from, the new chairman in post and directors' purchases, any good news on the finance side will put you in profit in the blink of an eye.

[postiga08] 08/7/2010 13:28
