WHY CALIFORNIA CITIES ARE GOING BROKE: Hermosa Beach meter maids making nearly $100K?

The Patrick Bobko mentioned in the linked story was my flight chief at Shaw AFB SC longer ago than I care to remember…and he was a smart, intelligent leader who didn’t stand for any nonsense. Seems that he hasn’t lost any of that, and is trying his damnedest to change things for the better. Let me respectfully suggest that your California readers keep an eye on this man – it will be him and people like him who really are California’s last hope.

California needs all the help it can get.
