I said it was a bad idea to float the Detroit automakers on a pool of public money when it was 1st suggested. When they did what I said they’d do and came back for more when they’d burned through what we handed them the first time, I said it again. Bankruptcy was what was [...]

Kaine vetoed bills Friday that [...]
Loudoun County’s budget process is in full swing with the Board of Supervisors slated to vote on the adoption of a budget at their next meeting on April 7. In my last post on the matter I wrote about the need to hold the County’s school system (LCPS) to the same budgetary cuts as all [...]
