Court Ruling Leaves $100 Million Hole in New Hampshire’s Budget

July 30, 2009

  NHprotestersThis year’s New Hampshire budget was “balanced’ by the governor’s plan to steal money that does not belong to the state and use it in the budget. He tried to take money that belonged to the Joint Underwriting Association, and independent agency from the government that provides malpractice insurance for doctors. $100 million to be exact.

  A court battle was being fought as the budget was being signed and now the judge has ruled in the case. The judge that the state has no right to take this money, a major blow to John Lynch’s budget. It really would have been a surprise if the judge had ruled any other way.

   This ruling leaves New Hampshire with a budget hole of $65 million this year and $45 million in last year’s budget. John Lynch was counting on this money to cook the books for last year’s bloated budget and now he is going to have to find a way to balance last year’s budget as well as this year’s. New Hampshire has a balanced budget amendment and so the governor has no choice but to come up with $100 million, wither in saving or in taxes.

  Which do you think that he will choose? Somebody is going to have to pay for Governor Lynch’s stupid idea of trying to steal money from a private organization and it will be us.

  This move should not be forgotten and it should not be forgiven. John Lynch’s irresponsible spending has put us in this mess and now he has no idea how to get us out of it. John Lynch acted like the crack addict who must steal to feed his addiction. John Lynch’s addiction is spending money and he tried to steal to feed this addiction. It didn’t work and now New Hampshire is in a real bind.

  Have you had enough of this administration yet New Hampshire? This should be the final straw.

    First, fire him! Second, major pay cut for the governor and every elected official who helped create this mess. Third, term limits!
