NH house bill 663FN

[Tired of Waiting]

possibly be a way to dip into the F&G dedicated funds and spread it around to the other department?

Just a thought. Cause that is what they tried around here. The F&G funds are dedicated to just that and they wanted to spend the money on other departments so the easy way was to merge them and that moves the money to where the politicians want it.

Didn't go over very well and was scrapped.

He says that F&G is going broke because of S&R missions... not that the purchase of Downing's landing helped finances either.

Looks like another power grab in an attempt to give senators and reps a way to help friends who have problems with the services.
If f&G is self funded now and is combined, they then can forget about their budget like the rest of the Govt and just spend and the general taxpayers will pick up the tab.
A new commission with all the trappings and staff. What happens to all the people that are doing the job now? In business you usually make changes to make business more efficient and less costly. I don't see that as the end result here.
This just looks like more regulation and red tape for taxpayers to jump through
with no real defined plan as to what will change other than a increase in cost.
