Is it fair for Schwarzenegger to order a third monthly furlough day for state workers?

  • Yes. The private sector is under enormous economic pressure, and state workers should share the pain.
  • Yes, but whatever budget solution the state comes up with shouldn't rely solely on spending cuts of this sort.
  • No. Californians would be worse off with the decrease in service availability.
  • No. Cutting pay via furloughs for thousands of employees will further hurt the economy.
  • Schwarzenegger didn't go far enough. Many more state services should to be cut entirely or privatized.
