Correctional Facilities (CCCF) Orange County Register:
April 26, 2002. "The Davis administration believes that shifting the inmates to
government-run prisons would ``save the state an estimated $5 million a
year,'' according to AP. But the California Taxpayers Association
estimates it really would cost the state $16 million a year. Given the
governor's faulty math on the budget, we'll go with CalTax."
