An Explanation of Cuts to Balance the Budget
There has been a lot of talk about the balanced budget, but people
never talk about the sacrifices made to balance the budget. Throughout
the process, my colleagues and I met with many citizens who
discussed why their cause was important and why funds should be left
intact for the program. In those meetings, I never once was asked
by anyone to seek an increase in funds. Ohioans know the
legislature and Governor Kasich are serious about turning Ohio
around. The trick to balancing this budget was making smart cuts.
Over the past 25 years Ohio Government has ballooned while our
population has dwindled in comparison with the other states. We
have witnessed our seats in Congress drop... Read More. More Opinion.

Remembering 9/11
Dear Friends, Ten years ago, our nation’s shock and fear in the wake of
the September 11 attacks was soon supplanted by compassion and unity.
It is this spirit of solidarity we reaffirm and remember today. Today,
we honor those who lost their lives ten years ago – thousands of
innocent people from different faiths and walks of life. September 11,
2001 was a tragic day. But from that tragedy, we came together as a

When Health Insurance is Free
By John C. Goodman
Did you know that an estimated one of every three uninsured people in
this country is eligible for a government program (mainly Medicaid or a
state children’s health insurance plan), but has not signed up? Either

doesn’t knock your socks... Read More. More Blogs. |

| NOTES
FROM
THE
EDITOR - TODAY IS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14,
2011 |
The
debate continues over Ohio’s unprecedented balanced budget with no new
taxes. State Rep. Jim Buchy tries to explain it… again. The D.C. debt
panel doesn’t seem to get it… they keep talking about revenue
increases. And our president has more spending on his mind. Of course.
In News: Ohio renewable energy law in danger; Rasmussen… Last Week’s Key Polls, and Kasich’s Week in Review. Events: 9/11 Ceremony & Parade to be aired on GPAT. Blogs: Stop the invaders; Prison reforms a worthwhile idea; and Consumers and honest bankers deserve a Cordray confirmation. Obituaries: Shirley Ertel Nicodemus. For
