I have a nagging question and maybe you could find the answer.

I have never heard from the Governor’s office or the legislative branch that they are first willing to take some cuts within their own departments.
Why is it that the general public has to suffer because of their overspending.

We cannot spend like we used to.  Many do not have a job to spend money.  The sales tax revenue suffers because of this

The baby boomer generation has purchased many of the items/homes that they will need for years to come.  Their children and grandchildren are more conservative and just making sure they have money to pay their bills.

It is a circle situation and it all can be handled from the top with more cutbacks.

Any thoughts or possibilities on this being handled in a more humane way?
