This week on Sundries at 9am Sunday morning is the final episode of the 2011 Fall season of State of the ReUnion. In this episode: Sacremento, a company town, where the company is government. In a city where one in four households contain a government employee, the crippling state budget deficit, police layoffs, fire engine brown-outs and park closures could easily signal only the bleakest of futures. And where people are figuring out ways — from clothing swaps to home shares — to deal with the hard new economic reality.
