Did you cast a vote on the state level in the last election?
What have you done to voice your displeasure to your state rep and state senator? Do you know like minded people in your district who will go with you to your reps office and present their disapproval?
Even more pointed: Is this some kind of surprise to you? Did you and the other citizens not see this coming many years ago when the budget crisis first reared its ugly head? Did you and the other citizens not see this coming many months ago when the budget problems deepened in the legislature?
Why did you wait so long to become concerned?
