Interesting to see the praise for state Rep. Shannon Savick centered on her getting money for the area in the bonding bill. The economy was left in great shape by the Republicans two years ago, as tax revenue figures have shown. She has said the economy is great and jobs are plentiful. Why then did she vote to increase the bonding bill by one-third to over $1.2 billion? Is the economy not as good as they say or did they borrow the bonding money from our kids future taxes to buy some more votes?
