697-ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUL

WOW! WHAT A BRILLIANT IDEA, FORMATTED BY A GROUP OF MENTAL GIANTS!

The legislature, realizing their override of the power rate bill vetoed by the governor might have not been such a good idea after all, are now faced with appropriating monies to cover the shortfall. So their answer is to dip in the funds that come from poker fees, a simply brilliant idea, except the poker fees are only being re-appropriated, there is no new money. As a result, funds will have to be taken from some other entities that need the money also. Ah, the cleverness of this completely friggin' amazes me. So in essence they are simply taking it out of the other pocket and cutting the funds in other places. Let's all try to guess who will take the hit for this, PSS, DPS, CHC, or some other nonessential agency, someone will have to give it up. To find out where the funds will come from, just wait for the screams. What more can be said for this mind boggling display of mental genius. The bottom line to this is we are still paying for CUC no matter which pocket they rob it from, hence robbing Peter to pay Paul.

A simple conclusion, if there is no new money then it results only in a shuffle of the little bit of money they have. In realility they have just reduced the budget for essential services by $6 million dollars, by spending it on CUC and trimming it elsewhere. This does not accomplish a damn thing but to cover their own dumbasses. The sad part about this is: They think we can't see through this, they think we are even more stupid then they are. Could it be because we keep reelecting them, year after year?
Did you hear about the lawmaker who got pattabaknass elbow? This only occurs when you are trying to pat yourself on the back while trying to cover your ass at the same time.
