Dan Walters of The Sacramento Bee is one of the wisest observers of the California scene.
"The remedy for irresponsibility, such as squandering windfalls, is electing responsible people to office and holding them accountable for what they do, even if it's difficult, such as dealing with multibillion-dollar deficits.
"That's real budget reform."
