wrt these state programs and there are many.... one thing that should be done immediately is look at the expenditures invloved. We are in a deflationary environment for many goods and services now... stuff is just plain cheaper and maybe some of these things like school lunches etc. can have their budgets reduced.

I'm not a scrooge or anything, I just notice that clothes and food are indeed cheaper and in some cases significantly... some of these programs could have their budgets cut by 1/3 and do ok, realistically.

>>There are too many Federally mandated programs, which must be paid for by the states. This is a legacy of the Ronald Reagan Federal "spending cuts". The "cuts" in spending were simply shifted to the states.

You scare the sh?t out of me. That means we are doomed at State level as States have to balance budget.
