A Rendell — and now Corbett — Bailout: Building Ships With No Buyers

On February 17, Governor Tom Corbett authorized the $42 million shipyard bailout. Two ships will now be constructed — even though there are no buyers, nor any in the foreseeable future — and hundreds of union jobs will now be subsidized. So much for the pledge of responsible government and fiscal restraint, especially in light of the $5 billion budget deficit. The wildly successful model that Gov. Christie has given his colleagues — popularity will rise if you stick to your campaign promises — is, incomprehensibly, falling on deaf ears. http://www.wopular.com/rendell-and-now-corbett-bailout-building-ships-no-buyers

I saw that too regarding the shipyard. He probably will end up being another RINO. I was hoping for Sam Rohrer in the primary. PA will not be able to dig out from the mess we’re in.
