Kutshanje ndiye ndafunda xa ndibukele umabonakude – esona sixhobo sicacileyo sokwandisa imfundo yomntu – ukuba izichazi-magama ezithathu ezihlonitshwayo ziquka ezinye iingcaciso zegama. ngokoqobo ngo-2013 oko kuthetha ukuba "ithathwa ngokomfuziselo." Esi sisizathu sam #827 sokungabinabantwana: baya kuthetha jibberish ukuba babambelele kwizinto ezithandwa yiOxford, iCambridge kunye neMerriam-Webster.
Kodwa ndiyidla.
Ndiphakamisa le ngongoma ukuze ndigxininise ukuba xa ndisithi abachaphazelekayo behlathi basezidolophini baseCalifornia ngokoqobo babengenayo inkxaso-mali karhulumente kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, ndiya esikolweni esidala kwi-y'all. Kungekudala kakhulu, iNkqubo yaMahlathi yasezidolophini neyokuHlala ye-CAL FIRE yakhutshwa kwingxowa-mali yebhondi. Iimali zeUrban Streams ezabiwe ngo-2012 zafakwa kwi-back burner. Kwaye ikamva le-EEMP lakhawuleza laphuma ehlotyeni njengoko abachaphazelekayo basebenza ukwenza iNkqubo entsha yoThutho oluSebenzayo. Sasintywiliselwa ngokoqobo kumaXesha Obumnyama… ngokufuziselayo, kunjalo.
Ngokuchanekileyo kwiminyaka emibini kamva, iCalifornia inohlahlo-lwabiwo mali lukaRhulumente olubandakanya hayi izigidi, hayi amashumi ezigidi, kodwa. amakhulu yezigidi zeerandi kwiinkqubo ezininzi ezikhuphisanayo zegranti ezinobudlelwane obufanelekileyo namahlathi asezidolophini.
I-101 yezigidi zeerandi kwiinkxaso-mali zolawulo lwamanzi emvula: Isiphakamiso 1 sichaza ngokuthe ngqo "iiprojekthi ezifanelekileyo zinokubandakanya, kodwa aziyi kuphelela apho, iziseko eziluhlaza." (Kulungile-mhlawumbi igama elithi "verbatim" yayiligama elingcono apho.)
I-400 yezigidi zeerandi kwiNkqubo yeZindlu ezifikelelekayo kunye neNkqubo yoLuntu oluZinzileyo: "Ukusetyenziswa okufanelekileyo kweeNgxowa-mali kubandakanya, kodwa akuphelelanga kwi-... i-canopy yemithi kunye nemithi yomthunzi..."
I-120 yezigidi zeedola kwiNkqubo yezoThutho eSebenzayo: Ukuba uyazibuza ukuba le nto idibana njani namahlathi asezidolophini, fowunela uClaire apha Amigos de los Rios ofumene iimbasa ezimbini kumjikelo wokuqala wegranti.
$ 7.6 million for River Parkways. I-6.7 yezigidi zeedola ye-EEMP. I-10 yezigidi zeerandi kwiNkqubo yeMfundo yaNgaphandle yokusiNgqongileyo. Ngokwenyani awukwazi ukuyenza le nto. Hayi, into endiyithethayo kukho... yima, ngoku ndibhidekile.
Owu, kwaye ndilibele ukukhankanya ukuba zombini iNdlu yoWiso-mthetho kunye neRhuluneli ngoku bayaxhasa $ 37.8 yezigidi kuba INkqubo yezaMahlathi yasezidolophini neyoLuntu yeCAL FIRE, eza kuvotelwa kamva kweli hlobo. Loo nto iphantse ibe yimali eninzi njengeePropositions 12, 40, and 84 ezabelwe leNkqubo… zidibene!
Ke njengokuba siphela ngoJuni kwaye sisiya kuSuku lweNkululeko, thatha umzuzwana ukhangele iindlela zokhetho lwenkxaso-mali yamahlathi edolophu phambi kwakho kunye neenkokheli zabahlali. Asizange silubone ngokoqobo olu hlobo lwenkxaso yeziseko eziluhlaza ezidolophini kwimbali yaseCalifornia. Kupholile, huh?
Kwaye ewe, ndixhalabile ukuba iCambridge kunye neOxford banokumangalela ngokunyelisa. Ngethamsanqa, baye bahlomela inkcazo yongcoliso ngo-2014 ukuze babonise “imeko echulumancisayo apho umntu engenakuziphendulela ngezenzo zakhe okanye ngelizwi elibhaliweyo.”
