According to Villarigosa (who is seen on the cover of Los Angeles Magazine with the word FAILURE across the picture) on the popular radio station KIIS FM with Ryan Seacrest - the rest of the Laker Day Parade was funded by private donations. SO what is that telling Sacramento? I'm afraid it's saying that those of us that live in LA aren't being taxed enough - especially if there are enough private funds to fund a million dollar parade. Still teachers are being fired and firemen and policemen are in danger of loosing their jobs... somehow this doesn't make any sense. Kind of like the healthcare stupidity in Washington. What?? What are we telling our future generations?? You're going to broke and stupid and you better get your own gun!
