    The first woman got a 2br for 1 person. The second woman got a 4br for 3 people. There's an obvious cut in spending right there! Don't get more space than you need! Secondly, if the government wants to help, cut the BS and just tax less. It's that simple.

      So easy to say when you have the money to probably afford a $1 Million dollar home. Don't pass judgement. Karma might be coming for you very soon and you could end up in the same predicament.

      Simplistic thinking. There are virtually NO 1 br apt/homes. They are the first to go. Same for 3 br. These women did the best they could to stay housed and I admire them for it.

    Hmm how about you lower many taxes the following is just 1 example. My sister bought a house in ca the same time i moved to Nevada we spent the same ammount on the house but she pays around 20k in house taxs along nad 5x the insurance cost. While i pay just 2200 a year in property tax.

    PGE rate increases continue, like every 6 months they are requesting a rate increase and the increases are always approved. PGE continues to send letters like every couple months that youre using too much, but because they created a tier, it pushes you into the higher rates, even when cutting back, it sucks!

      The "help" from the CA state legislature simply causes a business exodus or higher consumer prices. Meddling with the free market is a recipe for disaster, but hey, it gives the politicians and state workers job security.

      We ain't seen nothing yet on tax increases to both business, homeowners and working class of CA - someone has to pay for all the free healthcare to non-citizens, and someone has to pay for all of the housing vouchers for those who should be working like the rest of us.
