- Closing the Budget Gap
 - 
I have a four-pronged approach to Closing the Budget Gap:
1) Root Out Waste Fraud and Abuse
 
2) Implement Austerity Measures
 
3) Rein in Overtaxation and Overspending
 
4) Implement a Unique "California Contributor Program" beneficial to the both upper-end taxpayers and recipients of State funds.
 
 - Envionmental Protection and Reducing Regulatory Abuse
 - 
As an environmental engineer, I have made a career out of my concern for the enviornment.  In the course of representing clients who genuinely want to cleanup toxics in California, I have discovered that the State's regulatory agencies operate outside of the check and balance system that the constitution intended.
 - ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC PROPOSALS
 - 
These are some additional specific proposals that evolved from considering solutions to various issues such as the car tax, education, energy and the environment, immigration, and "controlled-substance laws."
