Two major security rating houses have downgraded Kentucky's bond rating, "citing increasing costs in the state's pension systems and too much reliance on one-time money to balance the state's books."And it comes just as Gov. Steve Beshear vetoed the cost-saving measures in a State Senate budget bill and used money from the next fiscal year to balance the budget.
Go figure.

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:
1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.
The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.
Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
