Ok so the prez has given all the states stimupork money. Only in MY state the Gov says we dont want all of it, unless we can use it to pay our selves out of debt.. Now to me that makes perfect sense.. How do you get out of debt? You pay it off right? The feds said no use it for what we say or you get none.. Ok fine with me.
Now local law makers are crying and trying to pass new laws where they can bypass the Gov in this case.. Am I the only one who sees this as wrong?
Bottom line if we take the money and dont pay off the debt we have now, we will still have the debt, and have added new debt to it, and what lesson will be learned?
If it were me I would tell them to keep all the money, and trim the budget..
A few ways I think the state can save money are
Put the Gov in a apt and sell the house we pay for
stop putting every single person who walks into the welfair office on welfair.. If you need it ok, but you got 365 days of it, THATS IT.. Either get a job and start being a productive person, or GET OUT.
Stop letting people abuse the medicade system. Working in EMS, I cant tell you the amount of times I have pulled in in my ambulance to find some 20 year old girl who has pretty much nothing wrong just wanting to go to the hospital. Guess who pays for that? WE DO!!!!!
Those 3 alone I would be could save MILLIONS!!!
Get rid of state funded cars. Unless your a cop you dont need a car provided by the state.. Just beacuse you are a office worked at the state house does not entitle you to a new car every year. With free gas that you use ot drive your family around on your days off.
Get rid of the DUI tv adds. heck my 2 year old knows if you drink and drive you go to jail. Do we really need to see that on tv every 5 min?
Go and redo the free money for college.. If you carry a 2.5 in high school, you dont get a free ride to college. That money should be put aside for people who excell in learning. If you tried your best and only got a 2.5, well sorry not everyone can fly the space shuttle.
Pretty much there is a lot of fat in the budget that can be trimmed.. I once did it to my budget and came out on top.. Just dont know why the goverment cant.
