In her article, Government has to make choices families, businesses dont, Cindi Scoppe discusses the difficult decisions our governement is forced to make. Ms. Scoppe- associate editor of South Carolina's The State- talks about how the state government is facing some tough decisions. Ms. Scoppe states that our legislative body lacks common sense. She says the economic issue in America has no real quick fix. As the economy gets worse, people will be afraid to spend money- this only fanning the flameof our economic problem.
I agree with the idea of reducing pay raises and bonuses if it would allow others to keep their jobs. No person in their right mind would ask for a pay raise if they knew it would cost them their job six weeks down the road. This are tough times and as Ms. Scoppehas pointed out, there are many options. We shall wait and see which one is the "right" one.
