And they don't even listen to r32 when he asks them to stop consecutively drunkposting as regards all things dual sport motorcycles and Big Sur.

Also I think you, or someone, copied that list and CTRL+R'd Department and State Board. I don't see a distinction between California Department of Food and Agriculture and California State Board of Food and Agriculture.

They both appear to be cdfa.ca.gov

I randomly copied and pasted a few to see. A lot are sub divisions of a larger entity.

I'm curious which ones you would eliminate?

Body of Christ, Texas
In 2018, Texas had 324,368.7 full-time equivalent state employees; 179,462.8 in institutions of higher education.

The numbers seem in line with Cali's but Texas is fiscally sound.

I just found out today that the EDD and Bank of America get kick backs for every unemployment benefit payment that goes and the includes the fraudulent pay to prisoners.

No wonder they don’t try very hard to stop fraud.

Our government says that the only places they can cut expenses is Police and Fire…!

It doesn't matter whether you are a Democrat, a Republican, or an Independent. This list is shocking. Over the years, our politicians have created this enormous pork barrel of agencies that employ over 350,000 people directly and countless more via contracts with the State. Almost all of these people get salaries, medical coverage, and pensions at our expense and almost all are unionized.
