DON PESCI: Malloy's pig in a poke tax plan - The Middletown Press (middletownpress.com)

From where will that money materialize? Certainly not from Gov. Malloy's and the State Legistive Democrats proposal. Malloy is counting on the state employee unions to give back $1 billion. Fat chance! Read the front page story in today's Courant if you want to see how the unions feel. Talk about "double dipping!" What will our illustrious NB State delegation do about this, especially our State Senator? And O'Brien has suddenly become a mute! How about it Sanchez and Tercyak, what's your plan? Conservative Dem Senator, Edward Meyer was kicked out of the Dem.Caucus because he had the temerity to call the Malloy/Dem. Legislature budget a "pig in a poke" plan. He wanted to see the pig before buying the poke.

Malloy has already said that if the union concessions don't materialize, towns and cities will be forced to raise taxes. What about it Mr. Trueworthy, are you going to raise NB taxes? Trueworthy is doing that at which he excels, to wit, blatherskiting!

I don't feel that Malloy and the State Democrats will have any compunctions about passing the State budget even without the union concessions. If the state legislature and Malloy are satisfied with their feeble efforts to control taxes in the state, what can the NB Common Council do? And the Board of Ed.? Can't wait to hear what Mr. Ayalon has to say.; April 24, 2011 at 10:54 AM

The same free money Obama is always promising everyone. Former Governor Rowland always refers to this free money Democrats are always promising everyone as "pixy dust" because the way they talk, it just materializes out of nowhere.; April 24, 2011 at 1:26 PM
