Is it the best way to "spend" our money or should I say, not collect taxes.
When its all said and done, the state may be out some amount of money for the program, its hard to quantify and one can assuredly put forth a study to prove its a money maker. Its a debatable topic but the overriding debate for me is the amount of spending in general.
If you look at the spending before and after Katrina, one can see that we are spending way more than we probably need. Once the federal money stopped rolling in, we continued to spend at those rates. Ultimately leading to the cuts in Higher ed and healthcare. Like all things Government, once the money becomes normal, the reduction is damn near impossible.
