I love this line from the first post above.
"We need to eliminate "Blue Ribbon Panels" and create "Blue Collar Panels" where grassroots people, rather than political hacks and corrupt big business interests, make decisions about public policy in an atmosphere of real democracy."
Kind of sums up my opinion. Who wrote this?
If the new governor wants to cut spending, IMHO getting rid of the many unnecessary, useless, redundant and corrupt commissions and panels would be a good place to start. How many six figure salaries and million dollar support budgets are associated with these political patronage appointments?
