As the writer points out, Maryland's Gov Hogan expects the federal government to make up for all Maryland's lost revenue due to the state closing it's businesses.(and the unemployment compensation)

Obviously the Federal government is losing revenue too but Hogan says that's OK because the Federal government has a 'printing press'.

Trump has no friends. Even his own family work against him.

No state bailouts. I’m fed up with nanny federal guidelines and dictates from DC to nowhere Wyoming, and in return, we pay them for irresponsibility.

He’s gutsy.

He hasn’t had the guts to do much else, but maybe he’ll discover them. One can only hope.

once i complained at a county council meeting that promising to pay for teachers’ full retirement was taking money from a lot of people’s retirement in higher taxes. Teachers told me i picked the wrong line of work.

no bailouts for mismanagement. let them eat cake.

There are many problems with bailing out states.

There are many advantages to letting states figure their own way out.

The question hanging is how much backbone Mitch has.

“It’s not fair to the taxpayers of Florida,” Florida Sen. Rick Scott (R) said Monday. “We sit here, we live within our means, and then New York, Illinois, California and other states don’t. And we’re supposed to go bail them out? That’s not right.”

How much tax revenue is Florida going to lose this year because the vacation industry cratered? How will the Florida state government make up the difference?

Bailouts are no good here, especially not for socialist states like NYS.
