Every step of the way, government is incompetent. Arnold cut a program to screen women for breast cancer.
Still, at the same time, a government agency is promoting, using tax dollars, this non existent program.
"Seven months after freezing new admissions to a program that screens low-income women for breast cancer, Californias Public Health Department is still spending money to educate those women about a service they can no longer receive.
The department has contracts with nonprofit groups around the state to provide education and outreach about the program, known as Every Woman Counts.
But while the state began blocking new admissions to the program on Jan. 1 to save money, it did not reduce spending or change the requirements in its contracts to inform women about the screenings and encourage them to get mammograms."
This, actually, is NOT about incompetence. The agency is promoting this program so that it will build an outcry from women to demand the service. This is a form of lobbying by government.
Tell people a service will "save your life", but "Sacramento” refuses to give it to you--then have these women contact legislators begging for the service.
This is not incompetence; it is another example of an agency abusing your tax dollars.
