The legislature is as awful as the governor. They pretty much refused to cut anything.
They seem to think there's all this obvious and easy low-hanging fruit to cut. Everyone seems convinced of this at the national level too. But there are never real cuts or savings when it's time to budget. Either all this supposed fraud and waste is imaginary, or it's real and they're all too stupid to pinpoint it in any specific way.

There are always things to cut, but the problem is they all protect various special interests, and they all would rather do no cuts than have their buddies cut. So the deal is no cuts unless it's something like TOPS which maskes regular folks mad enough to tolerate new taxes to fully fund it.
