Times in the Golden State are tough, and they just got tougher for 240,000 state workers.
An appellate court today approved California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's plan to slash pay for state workers to just $7.25 an hour.
Assuming a 40-hour work week, a full year of working at $7.25 would mean an annual salary of $15,080. That's less than $5,000 above what the U.S. Census Bureau deems to be the poverty threshold.
California faces a $19 billion budget gap and is attempting to cut costs where it can.
