Unless, of course, you're in Michigan. Michigan, and I strongly suspect other states as well (IL comes to mind), reduction of government has not occurred commensurate with reduction of state population.

Funny thing is that Maryland is managing quite well thak you very much, but then we don't have a union busting governor.
At least you GOOPers are consistent in following Saint Ronnie's "let's bust the unions and kill off the middle class" ideas.

Maryland is not unique. They are facing the same budget shortfalls due to unfunded pension liabilities (employment costs) that most other states are. I guess its only "union-busting" when a Republican does it?
