This is not good news for the poor in Massachusetts. The money is not just waiting out there to be scooped up by Massachusetts. Residents will have to lose that money first.

There is so much bad news priced into the stock ... and sentiment is so poor, that we believe the disappointing near-term results will be discounted in anticipation of improvements from new management.

They can tell us what are some of the poor practices that we are imposing on them that make the cost of doing business with us higher. What is impeding their ability to provide low total cost of ownership? How can we identify and reduce waste and eliminate errors in our processes? How do we get rid of inventory that is not value added?

We have to raise money, even if that means a tax increase. If we do that, we have to make a commitment to the people to explain why we're going to raise taxes and what they are going to be used for ... at the same time, we have to look at our future because our reserves are constantly being depleted.

It's why the money that should go to the poor stays with the bureaucrats and why things cost so much more than they should.

It doesn't matter whether you are rich or poor / as long as you've got money.
