Yankee Institue Give Malloy an F

You Can't Get Lower Than "F"

Cato Institute Gives Malloy a Failing Grade

The Cato Institute unveiled their annual Fiscal Policy Report Card on America's Governors yesterday and the news was not good for Connecticut's Dan Malloy. He was one of just five governors to receive an "F" for his fiscal management over the past two years.

That wasn't the only bit of bad news for Connecticut. The Tax Foundation released their 2013 State Business Tax Climate Index. It rated our business climate as the 11th worst in the country.

Meanwhile, many of the state's politicians gathered last Friday to gloat about receiving $121 million in federal funds to fund the New Haven-Hartford-Springfield Rail Project. Just one problem with that: the money had already been counted.

No wonder Gov. Malloy got an "F" on his report card.
