Governor Malloy takes the easy way out and calls it “the tough decision”

After the latest Quinnipiac poll showed that 51% of voters disapprove of his budget "plan" Governor Dannel Malloy stated "this is why the past couple of governors refused to make the tough decisions that needed to be made: because tough decisions often aren’t popular ones."
Mr. Malloy, reaching deeper into the tax payers’ pockets is not making a tough decision. You are doing the easiest thing, giving same old big government response.
This budget proposal would increase spending by $900 million over the next two years. Reducing the amount by which you intended to increase spending, IS NOT cutting spending!
Make some substantive cuts to the bloated monstrosity of state government!
If you are interested in making some actual tough decisions and doing some genuine budget reform you might want to look at what Gov. Scott Walker is doing.

Hey Danny, POOR decisions are also often unpopular!

  1. The more I learn about Governor Malloy's budget proposal, the more I oppose it.
    In this budget a property tax would be added to the registration fees on all planes stored and maintained at CT airports. There would also be a tax an parts and labor.
    These increases would send the planes housed in, and operated from CT airports to other states. The maintenance jobs would follow, and the airports themselves would loose revenue and may be forced to close.
    So why not apply similar taxes to boats and marinas, don't worry his proposal does just that.
