OK Parker, I don't know you but I think that you're a good guy and I'll rephrase my appreciation for Gary...

"Provide less, charge more for it. Good one Gary" should have read "Provide less, charge more for it. Thanks Gary, you're doing a great job"

I know it's a no-win situation for him, but that's part of being an elected official. Gotta take the criticism with the praise.

Would I make different choices given the decision and the ability to do so? Sure I would, and so would you. It's a tough job no doubt. We'll see how it all shakes out in the Legislature. That's where the real debate begins anyway.

I can empathise with you, I didn't get a raise this year either and I've always had to pay for my families health care. Not complainin' though, just recognizing that that's the world we live in.

Peace...
