Looks like I used SCIU rather than SEIU, which is correct. Glenn Beck has done a good job of connecting this union to ACORN. Makes this all the more interesting.

Could be that the "system" is being implemented without passage of the Healthcare legislation.

To be up front, one billion could be cut from PA’s budget and nobody would notice. Duplication, ineffective programs, per diems for ALL traveling employees and paying of our health benefits is just a beginning. NO governor has EVER set goals and objectives for his cabinet members. For instance, Estelle Richmond, (head of DPW) should be told on day one of her appointm,ent “you WILL decrease welfare roles by 30% in your first year or else you walk.” Instead she was told to “qualify, not verify”. Our welfare roles have illegals, multiple state applicants, and people with full time, under the table jobs who are collecting SSI. What can’t Spendell cut?
