They Are Both Wrong


Steve Beshear and David Williams continue to jockey for position in the upcoming election for Governor. Both of them are playing politics with the health care of 750,000 Kentuckians, that's about 17 percent of the population.

The problem is the short fall in Medicaid funding. Beshear want to shuffle money with no realistic way to cover the debt. Williams want so cut services to tax payers. Both are wrong.

FRANKFORT — The Senate is proposing cuts across state government — including cuts to K-12 education — to plug a multimillion-dollar hole in the state's Medicaid budget. The proposal met immediate criticism from Gov. Steve Beshear……

Beshear proposed moving $166 million from the state's Medicaid budget from next fiscal year to the current fiscal year.

The real issue here is tax reform and transparency and accountability in Government spending.


If this is the best they can do neither of them deserve to be Governor.
