Don’t be fooled by the relative peace and quiet in this year’s state budget process, which is about to conclude month’s earlier than last year’s near government shutdown.
Last year’s tax increase provided enough money to at least mollify the many different interests competing for state funding.
Long-term, though, the state is clearly headed back into the red.
Long-term, the much-needed but often-ignored reforms recommended last year by the governor’s own bipartisan budget experts will have to be taken up.
