RUSH: Here\u2019s Dave in Heron Lake, New Mexico. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Welcome.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Good day, Rush. I\u2019ll get to my point. Do you know a place called Maywood, California, right outside of Los Angeles?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, south of Los Angeles. I know it well.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, they\u2019re closing up shop. They went bankrupt because they\u2019re a sanctuary city handing out welfare and, frankly, breaking the law all the time. I lived in California for 35 years, and this city, I drove in and out of it because I worked the transit service there. These people are — I\u2019m Hispanic, let\u2019s get that straight to begin with. Their government is all Hispanic and the sad thing is, our people, you can\u2019t even trust them. They break the law and such. Well, this is just a blueprint for cities that — I live in New Mexico now — this is a blueprint for what\u2019s coming to your city, my home cities back in New York in Suffolk County —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — Patchogue, Babylon, and all of those have the same situation. It\u2019s coming to them. This is a problem that we have. They\u2019re going bankrupt because of what Obama has been putting out. Now, like the other guy said, a sidebar, you said that fifth graders were being handed out condoms. It\u2019s not fifth graders. It\u2019s five years old and preschoolers. And another thing about this person that\u2019s being nominated for the Supreme Court. They should ask her one question: ‘If you were nominated to the Supreme Court, would you resign if you did not follow constitutional law?\u2019<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, she would of course say no, I would follow constitutional law, as I interpret it, is what she would say. Here\u2019s the deal on Maywood. We had this in the stack last week. I didn\u2019t quite get to it, but it\u2019s going to happen this Thursday. There\u2019s ‘a working-class enclave of Maywood, south of downtown Los Angeles, will lay off all its employees, eliminate its police force and contract a neighboring city to run municipal operations. More than 100 city workers — the people who keep Maywood\u2019s streets paved and parks clean, school crossing guards and police veterans — will get pink slips. The action is without precedent in the state of California. The police department, which had enjoyed a love-hate relationship with the mostly immigrant city of about 50,000, will account for 70 of those jobs, including 47 sworn officers. ‘We\u2019ve become the extreme example in that the city is now contracting all of its municipal services, absolutely everything, to another city that will now generate revenues off that,\u2019 Maywood Police Chief Frank Hauptmann told ABCNews.com. ‘Some ask the question, ‘Why even have a city anymore?” From California to Pennsylvania, cities and towns are being pushed to the brink by the lingering economic downturn and mounting debt.<\/p>\n

How\u2019s that stimulus working for people? ‘The obligations of state and local governments have doubled to $2.4 trillion in the past decade, according to a recent report by the Federal Reserve. ‘It may be a real possibility for a few places and we may actually see a few cases of municipal bankruptcy that we haven\u2019t seen in previous years,\u2019 Chris Hoene, director of research for the National League of Cities.\u2019 So Maywood, California, RIP. Rest in peace. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
