Todd Smoldon says that he and "most Alaskans believe that there is a lot of meat left to cut"...but then he proceeds to write an entire column without naming one single specific cut. Instead he offers his "cutting edge" insight with stuff like "spent like drunken sailors" along with a meaningless per capita state employee comparison.
For a guy who is so damn sure that the budget hasn't been cut enough, you'd think Smoldon would have at least 1 or 2 suggestions for those cuts. But no, Smoldon doesn't have to chops to actually give any specifics...which means he doesn't have any actual ideas. Instead, Smoldon would rather lob vague generalities from the cheap seats and whine, complain and criticize everyone else.
Cut the budget people like Smoldon should either identify specific cuts or just STHU.
