    Just the tip of the iceburg around here. There was a single year at the height of the dot-com bubble when the State had a very small current budget surplus. They danced in the corridors of the State Capital and then argued with each other about how to spend that small surplus. Everybody wanted to get their filthy, greedy hands on it.

    No talk at all about applying it to outstanding debt or saving it for the future.
