"COLUMBUS — Republicans on Thursday ratified Gov. John Kasich’s plan to quadruple Ohio Turnpike debt......."
We are going to borrow money now against future tolls on the Ohio Turnpike.
Why? To get matching money from the funny money feds...........when we already have this money in the "rainy day fund". Why mortgage the future when you can pay as you go?
The Ohio Republican Party is making the democrats look like fiscal conservatives. I'm really believing that they have completely lost touch with reality.
It's not just the federal government that is having a mill stone of debt around our kid's necks, it's also the majority Republicans in Ohio. Yes, the same ORP that decries Obama's federal debt and deficits. They are not really serious about cutting spending, just gaining points when the democrats are the ones spending.
I'm so sick of every primary/election cycle hearing the GOP/ORP saying one or all of the following:
- "vote for us, we want to spend slightly less than the democrats"
- "vote for us, we are less liberal than the nasty democats"
- "vote for us, we aren't for gay mariage....yet"
- etc, etc..
