State health plan scandal

Mark outlines some findings from a state auditor's report on the State Health Plan, which lost $80 million last year.

He reports that the State Employees Association blames legislators for "inadequate oversight."

This has the makings of a big scandal that's costing taxpayers and state employees lots of money.

Wait a moment. Aren't these the same incompetent crooks that recently told us they were going raise our taxes by some $500 miilion, but they'd have to give us the details later? Or pilfered hundreds of millions from the highway fund? Or ran up a massive deficit in violation of the state constitution?

But the "enlightened" voters of our state just keep sending the same thieves back year after year? At some point you stop blaming the hyena for acting like a hyena, and blame those who introduced the hyena into polite society!
