[QUOTE="donna723, post: 239121, member: 1883"] Marcie, [I]your[/I] governor should meet [I]our[/I] governor ... they'd have a lot in common! In just a few years we went from having a budget surplus to being hundreds of millions of dollars in the HOLE - and I mean that literally! Their answer, of course, is to lay off State employees! Not the highly paid ones in the upper tier, but the lowly peons who actually do the work! If that doesn't work, then the ones that are left will take a pay cut! And at the same time, our billionaire jet set governor's pet project is completing a huge private [I]underground[/I] entertainment venue - UNDER the Governors Mansion - so the politicians have somewhere magnificent to entertain their millionaire jet set campaign contributors who are used to the very best! Yep! They are digging a CAVE [U]under[/U] the governors mansion - the cave will then be magnificently furnished like Buckingham Palace as a suitable place to wine and dine the ones with the big checkbooks! Private contributions started it but the rest is coming right out of State funds, while low-level employees are losing their jobs! We're in dire straights, but they just keep digging that $&%*# HOLE! This governor is not any worse than the one that was governor during the last financial crisis! First they decided that they didn't have the money to keep the State parks open. So they made those jobs [U]non[/U]-Civil Service and laid all those people off that worked in the parks. But at the same time, under the radar, they were acquiring land and making millions of dollars in improvements to build a NEW State Park, that the governor then named after HIS WIFE!!!!!! I think I'm going to be sick! On second thought, you would NOT want to come here to live! [/QUOTE]
