this poster should have
been illegal too
News & Review’s Cosmo Garvin blogs about Regional Transit’s EPIC WIN last week when the California 3rd District Court of Appeals ruled (in the case SHAW et al. v. THE PEOPLE ex rel. CHIANG, as Controller, etc., et al.) that a portion of the money taken from Public Transportation Account in the last 3 budget years must be repaid. Garvin points out that there is obviously no money in the state’s wallet to pay out, so it remains to be seen what will happen.
What should happen, to borrow a phrase, is the political heads of Gov. Schwarzenegger and many other elected officials on a platter. What would happen to a businessperson who shifted money around in order to pay his company’s bills and did something illegal?
What is this? A newspaper?

It’s not illegal until someone sues you.

In Arnold’s case, it would have to be a h-u-g-e platter…

Well- it’s not *enforced* until someone (State, person) sues you. But I love that poster. It’s from 1983 I assume?

Someone did sue, and lost, and appealed, and the loss was overturned.
