Population of Maine in 2000: 1,274,923

With a $5,700,000,000 budget, that comes to about $4,470.86 per resident. They would be better off just sending checks to every resident for $4,000.

But wait, then they wouldn't be able to employ all the useless folks in good government jobs.

That's a good link, CSM. Thanks!

The lawmakers never ever want to cut any of their little pet programs! And since the Rats run Maine, we will continually see this happen to the rest of us.

I hope a good chunk of Maine smokers ARE Dems! They will feel the heat just like the rest of the Maine smokers!
