Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa Says City Budget Cuts Necessary to Offset Occupy LA Costs

A few weeks ago the Mayor's office floated the brilliant idea that the city would provide -- rent free -- office space to the Occupy LA crowd for the supposed purpose of encouraging them to get off L.A.'s streets. Now comes the news that other constituencies in the city will be taking a hit to fund the city expenses (more police, traffic control, trash collectors) in connection with Occupy LA.  As someone who lives and pays taxes in Los Angeles this really troubles me.

It's troubling considering how much we are in deficit financially... Eventually tax payers pay the burden.
