Gov. Mallof was more interested finding ways to raise taxes on the middle class to do his research.
Yes.
I wonder if all this recent yowling by Malloy re: Indiana is to help cover up the fact that Controller Kevin Lembo yesterday announced a $173 million *deficit* in CT's General Fund... $40 million more than expected. So far, Malloy's "cuts" have totaled about $13 million.
Also... as you probably know, the stupid $600 million New Britain to Hartford bus-way ("CT Fastrak") opened over the weekend, and has been a disaster so far. As CT Republicans predicted, NO ONE is riding the stupid thing. On Monday, the authorities at Fastrak were reluctant to report that only SIX riders used it to commute from NB to Hartford. So that's $100 million per rider!! LOL!
NBC Connecticut reported on Tuesday night that the brand-new Fastrak buses have been breaking down, and have been very slow when they ARE running. The handful of people who rode the thing on Monday and Tuesday complained that they didn't get to work on time, and it was a very s-l-o-w ride. Fastrak responded: "Well, Fastrak riders can enjoy the free WiFi in the buses, and work remotely until they get to their offices."
LOL, I kid you not!!! ;-D
