By TomTGRWolcott / June 24, 2012 /

I am amazed that the lights are still on here in the great state of Connecticut.  What even amazes me more is that this state after the largest tax increase in history by the Malloy Administration has still resulted in a deficit.

Connecticut’s smoke and mirrors budget and other liberal wish lists

By Jim Vicevich / June 5, 2011 /

Just an amazing post from the Big Government site about Connecticut’s Democratic legislature and Democratic Gov. and their pursuit to prove that big government tax sucking liberalism can actually work. I was stunned reading the post to see just how liberal the state has become. Sometimes it isn’t until you see it in print that…

In a lesson taught to me two years ago by the Sound Off Sister regarding profits, I was told thatPROFITS are not EVIL … that is the goal of any business owner, to make money.  When Businesses make money it means that a business has money to spend.  That money can be spent in a number…

What costs Connecticut more: Liquor sales blue law, or Governor Malloy?

By Dimsdale / February 28, 2012 /

Living as I do, in close proximity to the Connecticut border, I get most of my news from Connecticut. Lately, the topic of the blue law restricting the sale of liquor on Sundays has become a hot topic. And in the interests of full disclosure, I could not possibly care less if people can buy…

Hey you Coupon Clippers… Look over there it’s the TAX MAN!

By TomTGRWolcott / March 1, 2011 /

As we all know Govenor Malloy is really trying his best to balance the Connecticut state budget. I completely agree that this budget needs to be repaired. We all know how our govenor would like to do it, by raising taxes and even introducing some new ones in the budget. Like going after coupon clippers? Sad, but…

Malloy backs Fleebaggers … calls it “part of the game”.

By Jim Vicevich / March 1, 2011 /

Unbelievable but true. OK, maybe not unbelievable. Democrats hang with Democrats, but hasn’t Connecticut’s Governor just green lighted shirking one’s elected responsibilities throughout his state too? Most towns and committees in New England have long had quorum rules governing even the smallest items and this Governor says … do what you have to do. Legislators…
