You dont have to pay for it Larry. You can bond it and let your kids and grandkids pay for it.
Isn’t it time for Jerry Brown-style pension reform, Wisconsin or Indiana-style school vouchers, and Deval Patrick-style public sector health care benefit reform.
We have Democratic Governors out there proposing 401K matching for all new state hires and to put the state workers into the new exchanges just like all other humans beings in the state. They aren’t special.
GOP governors are demanding an end to union management of job descriptions and promotions resulting in agency mismanagement.
Surely CT can find a decent GOP candidate Larry. Who knows? Maybe someone relocates here sensing a leadership gap?
