Governor Corbett has proposed cuts of more than 50% of state aid to some universities. He also opposes taxing natural gas produced in Pennsylvania. In the words of state Democratic State Senator Daylin Leach, “This is the most irrational public policy I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Governor Corbett touts how business friendly he is. Does he really think employers will move to a state or remain in a state where the universities are in shambles and the work force is not prepared for the modern world? I always try to be fair, but Governor Corbett is either not very smart or an ideologue who will not face reality--probably both.
