Yep that sounds like good fiscal management to me.The overall budget totals $124.3 billion, up 5.1 percent from last year. And the state’s debt — costing New Yorkers nearly $5 billion in payments annually — will go to $53.3 billion from $50 billion, largely as a result of new borrowing programs.
Dr_G, I'd guess that the reaction to the events of 2001 was a huge opportunistic money grab by anyone who had a song-and-dance to sell to the public. Best act(s) won. Unlike the conspiracy theorists, I don't believe that all this was planned, just that some saw their chance and ran with it.Originally Posted by DR_GONZO
For further reading, please substitute the words "the events of 2001" with the words "global warming".
