The dirtiest secret of every city, county, school district, public university, and special district in California is the massive pensions paid to retired public employees. Thousands of retired public employees in California are drawing annual pensions of over $100,000 per year. Hundreds of them get over $200,000 per year. These are pensions, not salaries!
These super-generous benefits are very expensive That's why there's not enough money available to properly fund all government programs.
