And in the year before there was a 100 billion dollar windfall in the budget during a pandemic no less while still hosting this healthcare program. State spending is a good thing, it really amounts to making investments into either the infrastructure of the state or its people. Its too bad headlines and therefore sentiment seem to miss this fact, and equate a spendy state to a ditzy college student with terrible credit card habits.
