I hear too many generalities about thye cuts. I would like to hear specific items that should be cut and why. If you ask me we could probably save lots of money if we got rid of legislative and the governors staffs and they could learn how the work gets done.Jean Letourneaunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811616037332448221.post-25865611003349256692009-12-01T08:05:58.711-05:002009-12-01T08:05:58.711-05:00Looks like McCauley and Minor vote against the bud...Looks like McCauley and Minor vote against the budget and in favor of a small tax increase was the right thing. We would have not had to drain the rainy day fund and not been subject to a large or possible mid supplimental big tax increase now. But what am I thinking Ward wanted no tax increase in an election year. We got it and now we will pay big for it in service cuts and a bigger increase then if we had done it in June. And all the Ward union buddies will be the first to take the hit. I am glad you will be getting what you desereve for endorsing Ward.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811616037332448221.post-29900925505622280842009-12-01T07:24:27.974-05:002009-12-01T07:24:27.974-05:007:50 PM, We should seek the wisdom of Zoppo and St...7:50 PM, We should seek the wisdom of Zoppo and Stortz???
