This video had a more serious feel to the California Cuts and shows how it affects regular families. Families who have gone through medical problems in a time in need will be hurting even more because the medical cuts will cause a lot of patients to be left with less. Their lives are dependent on these cuts and if they are not acknowledged some are left without a chance. There are a lot of bills that come along with medical issues because I have been in a car accident where I was in the hospital for three days and if I did not have medical insurance, I would probably have to pay more than I could afford.

  1. There is no choice that Arnold can make that will benefit everyone in a positive manner. If cuts aren't made then more and more people will lose medical insurance and countless millions will fall under the budget crisis instead of a couple million. As said before there is no easy decision people will suffer due the budget crisis regardless how the cuts are made or discussed among the State legislature. But having cuts taking away medical insurance and education to much need kids and families should be an option only if we have to take it there is many areas in which we can make cuts and not have medical care and education suffer or atleast not make them suffer as much. For one the video posted on youtube could name other sources that would make the state money such as lowering wages throughout state government officials for not doing their job and not catching this crisis earlier. Also the State budget could further raise State tax, not exactly a good thing to do but will further keep the medical care and education quality declining. As a one sided argument to keep medical care and education from declining there must be other alternatives
