Are they listening? The Governor is #3

My conclusion is that reading the media comments and the pundits and the blogs, they don't have the crystal ball that magically bestows wisdom.

.

As with much of what transpired on a local Middleboro scale, it's the voters, those every day recipients of much needed services who truly know what needs to be accomplished, but no one has listened to them.

.

The "economic downturn," or whatever we call it today, is going to get much worse in the Bay State before it gets better.

.

Casinos, racinos and slot parlors will not bail us out, so let's stop pretending and being dishonest about that one.

.

It's time to seize the opportunity and give serious consideration to the quagmire of agencies, programs and vast cobwebs of government that have been created around us.

.

Let's start with the tough stuff like education and human services.

.

Government and bureaucracies need to be reshaped and reinvented and streamlined.

.

Delay as you choose.

.

It will happen of necessity, with or without you.

.

It's time!
