Gov. Malloy needs to stop lecturing us residents with his '17 City Rock Tour' and start lecturing and demanding answers from id Democrat colleagues in The General Assembly LOB in Hartford that got us into this financial mess of spending $$$$$$$$$$$!.

No matter who was elected governor of this State, that person was handed a fiscal problem. We can blame the Democratic General Assembly who, for years, would spend, spend, spend dollars without thinking of the consequences.

Yes, even People like Edith Prague (D) who thinks money grows on trees. We noticed how quiet Edith is these days? Without all those liberal dollars just hanging around, she no longer clamors for more money, money. money to spend on frivolous things.

We know that the governor does have to make tough decisions but he is only one vote. The ones we have to go after - are the general assembly. We have way to many Reps in this state of Connecticut. We wonder how much money we could save by cutting back on that overhead to half - our state Representatives?.

JOBS - JOBS - JOBS; Most Tech jobs are outsourced to India and Manufacturing jobs are outsourced to Latin America and Asia. This was supposed to be a boost to consumers and bring us more jobs. However, it has brought us neither!

What it has brought is the rapid deterioration of the American middle class. There is some short-term employment security in the medical field, public sector, and low end service sector, but in general, it has been devastating to the middle class.

What low-end service sector employment that there is that cannot be outsourced is where you find all of the illegals of many nationalities, but it is not their fault it is the fault of those that hire them.

That is why we need term limits on the State and National level of Government - also the gravy train of dollars for non- profits is heading down the track into a train wreck?

Why don't we start be ending the free health care and pensions for legislators. If you read our state history, the job of legislator was always intended to be a part time job that you did in addition to your regular job.

End the free ride for these radicals and maybe some of them will go home since they will no longer be able to line their pockets at our expense!
