  6. I blame ALL the elected Congress and their priorities being on getting re-elected rather than what's BEST for the country for the counties "downgrade". I think it's time to clean house and vote anti-incumbent in any and every election that comes up throughout the country. Get these "selfish clowns" out of office and bring in "fresh blood" who actually "care" about the COUNTRY rather than their own "personal gains"! Anyone else agree?

Why was it NOT reported that the last unit Delta Company from Hudson would not return as a unit but as individuals at different airports. No homecoming for them?

  1. You always hear about different debates about taxes and the wealthy vs. taxes and the rest of the public. Shouldn't all taxes be a percentage of whatever they concern, with no ifs ands or buts about it? I know I know next to nothing about politics, but a percentage seems fair to me!

  3. You have been making inaccurate statements about state workers' benefits. For example for the March 17 holiday, you stated that for the first time, state offices are going to be open. State offices have always been opened even though this was a holiday for Suffolk County only. This morning, you reported that state workers are allowed to cash in their accrued sick leave when they retire. Most state workers can only cash out 20% of accrued sick leave. In addition to this, although there are some high paid officials, particularly in higher ed, most state workers do not make a lot of money. Their salaries are not even near salaries paid to private sector comparable positions. So, please be more accurate with your statements. thank you!

  6. I would like to know if taxpayers are paying for medical insurance for our local and state politicians and also are they still collecting their "colo's" annually. With Social Security reciprients not receiving a raise for a substantail amount of time and all the talk about medicare cuts, isn't it about time that they should either put a freeze on their raises and pay their own medical insurance?
