Funding will be baaaack

California's Proposition 42 looks like it will be fully funded next year. Despite last month's bogus publicity stunt whereby a hole was created in a road so that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger could be filmed filling it, the governator is to be commended for saying that the state's infrastructure fund will not be raided for other purposes in 2006. Schwarzenegger, who originally proposed suspending the measure's funds for a fourth year, said last month that revised revenue projections were good enough to restore full funding for fiscal 2006. Anything that helps California's congestion crisis works for me. Your comment?
