  1. hi everyone!

    bottom line on the vote:

    Who will cut through the crap in Albany?

    The largest problem we face right now is our state economy.
    there was a 9 billion dollar budget gap last year and it was papered over with new taxes, stealing from dedicated funds and shaky projections on unstable revenue resources.

    we are facing multibillion pension liabilities due to the legislators who gave away the house to special interests, lobbyists and unions. Somebody has to pay for this.

    there is also an estimated 200 billion unfunded health care benefits liability facing the state, outside of the pension liabilities already mentioned.

    oh, and next come the medicaid expansion of the Healthcare Reform act.

    the next governor has to sit down with the Teachers Union, the Education sector, the Healthcare sector, the Unions and the Special Interests to let them know where to go.

    Who has the “cajones” to do this?

    …and don’t tell me more taxes more spending bs.
    look at California and it’s IOU’s for pensioners. That’s what we’re facing.
