State Senator Ted Lieu: "Spend Offender"

Megan's law has 80,496 registered sex offenders. CA puts GPS on less than 9,000. When these high-risk felons cut off GPS, it's major problem -- @tedlieu March 7

Editorial on sex offenders cutting off their GPS ankle bracelets. Problem is not going to go away. Needs to be fixed. http://www.thereporter.com/rss/ci_22728244?source=rss … -- @tedlieu, March 7

Felonious acts against children must be prevented at all costs, not just by local law enforcement, but by our state leaders. Yet a more subtle offense is being perpetrated against California youth. Young people suffer in substandard public schools, where improvident or incompetent teachers can misuse their authority and abuse children, yet they cannot be fired. The unions which "represent" teachers do nothing to protect the best while excusing the rest. Sacramento's legacy of debt and dysfunction will leave an abusive legacy of diminished quality of life for California youth, as well.

Profligate Public sector unions throughout California ingratiate themselves with Democratic lawmakers like Ted Lieu, while they intimidate small businesses and denigrate Republican and reform Democrats who want to restore power to the voters and local leaders. Sex offenders are a real threat, who must be identified. The long-lasting threat of tax-and-spend statism which is hurting our children now and into the foreseeable future must also be curbed. In the latter case, thsoe "spend offenders", represented by the Democratic supermajority in Sacramento., must be registered, monitored, and marginalized.

One local letter writer in the Daily Breeze suggested that instead of microchipping pets, it's time to place homing devices in the state legislators, like Ted Lieu, who sponsored the microchip bill:

Bruce Szeles concurred with David Winnet's complaint in Aug 5 Daily Breeze:
 
Mr. Lieu should be focused on state government that needs to be overhauled and not creating laws that are best dealt with by an individuals own common sense. Ted, please fix the CALPERS  system that is still in the mix to bring this state to it's financial knees. Shut down the Alcohol Beverage Control in the state because they are just  lobbyists for the booze sellers of this state. Let the booze sellers pay for  their own lobbyists and save the tax payers money.

From attempting to triple the state's car tax, to micromanaging the care and sale of pets, to dictating the how and where of car loans on used car lots, to preempting the collection of rents by Internet payment, to intervening in tanning salons, the treatment of abandoned ships, to ignoring the pension crisis looming over California, to redoubling the regulations on businesses, to standing by while the state legislature continues to spend money that the state does not have on agencies that we do not need to hire people that we should not have to pay. . .

State Senator Ted Lieu is a "spend offender" if there ever was one.

He claims that the state budget is balanced, when the rosy projects of increase revenue have not rolled in yet, even as wealthy and working Californians are leaving the state in droves. He claims to support tax credits, yet he should credit every tax payer with lower rates on sales and income taxes. He receives substantial contributions from union interests, whose only interest is protection and payout from Sacramento, at the expense of California voters.

State Senator Ted Lieu should be microchipped as a "spend offender", along with the rest of the Democratic Lawmakers in Sacramento. Every time that a legislator wants to raise our taxes, or spend money that the state does not have, while denying students a proper education, or California residents compensated core services, then the legislator should endure a sharp "shock" to bring them in line with limited government, lower taxes, less spending, and respect for local control.

His latest tweet is offensive for its hypocrisy as well as its audacity:

$10m priest sex abuse payout in LA. What does it say about Church that Cardinal Mahoney is now voting for next Pope? latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2013/03/…

I have a better question for State Senator Lieu:

Attempted to triple car tax, refuses to meet with constituents in Redondo Beach -- what does that say about Lieu's true interests?
