Nepo baby Alan promising the world with nary a hint on how it will work in reality. This is the state equivalent of Trump promising $5000, neither will ever happen.
Demonstrates Alan has no concept of how the state budget works. So we can yank $14 billion out of the budget with no increases in other revenue and everything will be fine?? This would put thousands of people out of work to include state troopers, nurses, doctors, social workers, etc etc. General Fund dollars also provide matching funds required for numerous Federal programs to include Medicaid. No matching funds, no grants. The loss of Medicaid would be devastating to SC as tens of thousands are on the Medicaid rolls.
We’ve heard this same crap before but it never happens. Alan hopes the people of SC are totally ignorant about how the budget works and he is right.
You do realize for years the SC legislature has boasted of billions in “excess funds” to the budget, not to mention their wasteful spending and earmarks. A budget excess amount is money stolen from taxpayers. While it’s nice he wants to eliminate the income tax, as governor he would have very little power to do so.
