"Such chaos includes closing all state parks, motor vehicles offices, courts, and even the lottery. Public assistance payments would not be made and unemployment payments might also be held up."
Wow, not that will cause chaos. When the entitled society cannot get their money to buy the stuff they are used to getting, things will get ugly. This won't stop here though. What about the thousands of employees at these area that will be shut down. They won't be working, so they will enter the unemployment lines...oops, the unemployment offices will be closed because they don't have money. See where I'm going? The domino effect will be huge. What about the coney dog vendor on the sidewalk outside one of these state office buildings, guess he better not order more dos just yet, because he may not have any customers on Monday.
"Sources said the next emergency bill from Paterson will have up to $350 million in cuts to human services and mental health. But Republicans, who could become Paterson's new allies in the budget battle, aren't satisfied with that.
They want $750 million in new cuts like:
1. Delaying the 10 percent welfare grant increases
2. Withholding welfare from those who don't comply with employment requirements
3. Reducing the personal needs allowance of people in drug and alcohol programs"
They way it looks, somebody has to give. But someone is going to take it hard. $350 million or $750 million, either way the entitlement society won't like the outcome. NY is
Keep you eyes open on this as it may be heading to other states/counties/cities and even our country.
