Ohio Government Earns a B-
March 8, 2008
According to the Columbus Dispatch, the state government earns the grade of B- under the leadership of Governor Ted Strickland. The report is based on everything from the budget to roads and bridges.
According to the Dispatch:
But a projected state budget shortfall being put at somewhere between $735 million and $1.9 billion is “indicative of the shortage of precise numbers in the state.”
Ohio also gets graded down for not yet having a strategy to deal with the “coming wave of retirements among state employees” and the institutional knowledge that will be lost.
I didn’t realize what a huge budget deficit the state of Ohio had.
