It is so complicated that the sum of all the parts is out of control and the people that fund this massive organization are lashing out now that they have been subjected to a few years of ression and the agencies or government big wigs do not seem to know where their source of funding comes from.

The small agencies at the bottom of the barrel are always struggling.

Do you realize that Lynch did cut back on the state's contribution to the state pension fund? This was done simply by making all towns and municipalities pay 5% more. In addition, Concord made it illegal for towns to pass the increase on to any employees !! And you wonder how towns have problems controlling costs.
