Gov. Wilson’s Performance
In this State of the State address (Jan. 7), Gov. Pete Wilson’s demand for a revision of the fraud-riddled workers’ compensation program was right on. At one time, I had two secretaries. Now my secretary’s name is IBM PC.
A small business person in California can’t afford to hire help in a state that has gone nuts with its high workers’ compensation insurance premiums and even higher income tax. Unless taxes and fees are lowered, California’s biggest export will become ex-employees moving to Nevada.
