<p>Funny that the thousands of useless administrators and their equally incompetent staffs are never the ones put up front to yell that the sky will fall if their budget is cut. Yet does anyone really doubt that the state could easily save 20% on the UC budget if they cut back the admin overhead and useless nonacademic social programs and the worthless humps who run them? It’s just like the politicians claiming that they will need to take cops off the street to meet the budget cuts. What’s wrong with putting some of those lard asses who got promoted into useless desk jobs back in squad cars instead. Fire the damn bureacrats. Cancel those ridiculous pensions. And Stop paying for college for illegals. There’s no need to cut academics. It’s just a cynical threat, which if acted on ought to result in the firing of the entire college administration. Smarten up.</p>
