Quotes of the Week:

"It's false to say the economy has been buoyed by reducing the public payroll. ...We may not see problems in the short term, but I don't think people are going to like it when the rivers run brown again because of polluters, when game violators rule the woods, when developmentally disabled youths are out on the streets or when inmates are released early from prison because we don't have enough correctional officers. If anything, management is bloated with bureaucrats like Cory Nettles.
--Marty Beil, executive director of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Local 24, who said public workers have been 'scapegoated' by Nettles and Doyle."
