To all of you negative Nellies, I bet you didn't read the state budget when it was passed nor have you talked to your state representatives about spending levels.

Well I actually did back in January. The state has passed a budget with approximately 4.9 billion dollars has a surplus to be held in reserve. Further our Representatives on both sides of the Isles are relatively conservative when it comes to spending money. There is actually a lot of leeway when it comes to spending money such as Road reconstruction building, new projects and many other areas. I bet we'll all be surprised when things open up how fast tourism restarts and taxes are collected.
