As much as I don’t want him to run next year, it’s not really his fault. He says cut spending, the Legislature says no, he takes the rap. ---

Talk about inheriting a clusterf\*ck. Paterson can’t do a thing in this state and frankly the next guy won’t be able to either. Those abolish NY state govt signs make me go hmmmm. Maybe the county execs should run the state. ---

> [@Joe](#): > > As much as I don’t want him to run next year, it’s not really his fault. He says cut spending, the Legislature says no, he takes the rap. Yep. Sheldon Silver is the real problem. At least during the coup fiasco the senate enacted rules allowing votes to come to the floor for a vote without requiring the approval of the majority leader. In the assembly Silver is still the dictator elected by a tiny percentage of the state. ---

!/4 of the state workers can go. Every state run union is over populated with workers. On a normal job site I see 5 guys watching 2 guys work. Soloution, send 3 guys. Thats a start anyways. Why isnt new york city a state yet? Somebody also needs to school me on how a defecit can grow to those proportions. You cant spend money you dont have, or can you? ---
