To the Editor:
The citizens of this state share a proud tradition of friendliness and honesty. We’re a hardworking, sell-sufficient bunch. Our Taxpayers deserve a government with the same values.
In the past few years we have all witnessed alarming scandals of financial misuse of taxpayer dollars, namely Gear Up and EB 5, resulting in the loss of untold millions of dollars, a misdirection of state resources and, sadly, a tragic loss of life.
Our state was graded F for being one of the most corrupt states in the nation. Do we need checks and balances in state government? Reasonable people would say yes.
