State’s Crumbling Infrastructure
I want to offer your readers another solution.
Citizens are gathering signatures now for an initiative measure which would create the California Commission to Expand Civilian Economy. Passage of it would authorize the commission to urge the U.S. and U.S.S.R. to reduce their military budgets by half by 1997, and would propose legislation and programs to protect California’s economy from adverse impact during the transition from a military to a civilian economy.
It would also recommend that our federal government redirect the funds saved into restoring our environment, economy, our cities and neighborhoods, and all the other needs.
