Why is Raimondo a Democrat since she is practicing commonsense conservative economics - realistic, trying not to cut the most vulnerable, but telling it like it is?
However, a kudos to her for doing something constructive in a state I’d like to see slip into the sea, but it is nothing like Connecticut which I would like to see Neutron-bombed out of existence.
I think you're going to see this happening repeatedly all across the country.
Totally agree about CT, that is one messed up weird vibe state.
Hubby, the kid and I once drove to Vermont and intended to return to NJ that same day. It was just too far to make it home so we ended up staying in some hotel/motel in CT.
That next morning we got the local paper outside our room for free (ah, the pre-internet days of newspapers, I admit, I kind of miss them).
I’ll never forget looking at that paper, one story was about some poor woman who had brain cancer (or something like that) and her family (husband and two teenage daughters) basically could not wait for her to die. She wasn’t really a big invalid or anything, but she was going to die any way, so what’s the delay? Even her Lutheran minister chimed in on the die already! side.
Another story was about some other woman who had survived an attempted murder, by another woman, that ended with the intended victim in a shower stall or bathtub taking like 15 shots, or something like that, but still not dying. No Lutheran minister opined on whether or not this was a good thing. Yes, I think drugs might have been a factor, or jealousy, or both.
After perusing these stories I turned to hubby and I said, we gotta get out of this state stat! Wake up the kid, we are heading for the border!
