Not for certain jobs...

Heavy highway construction is extremely dangerous because of the motorists, this law is aimed at their safety not the drivers safety.

Just a few work zones.

If only that were true.....chemical imbalances are far from bring a choice my dude.

Here is something else to piss you off:

   The state is holding back billions of promised money to these programs....

Expect a very large strike in April/May.

Gabby, thank you for putting this out there , elder care was a mess 20 yrs ago when I was a recreational therapist for a LTC facility, and I'm facing placing my dad in short term rehab this week, and it scares me. I am going back and forth from Yale New Haven and let me tell you, the care THERE is bordering horrendous.

The hospital is filthy, the 3 ppl in his room are not getting the care they deserve, in fact, it's bordering neglect and that's at Yale. No washing up, barely any pain control, they will not help him eat despite the broken arm, call bells are placed where he can't reach it, urine placed next to his food, same dirty foot print on the floor for 3 days ....I really could go on.

I expect less from the rehab and that's terrifying.

That trend actually started with defense attorneys, they believe the word RAPE, prejudices jurors automatically against the perp. This is why it is nearly always called sexual assault. It's been going on for at least a decade and started with attorneys not the press.
And it's been done to female victims as well as male. It has nothing to do with gender just protecting the one accused.

This is a really accurate budget. I would just add to have a little savings for when the taxes hit every year on the car.

Agreed.

Fire them. Now.
