Message: From GoLocalProv by Kate Nagle, GoLocalProv Contributor: The most daring part of Governor Lincoln Chafee’s budget and his budget speech may have been his ending quote. Chafee’s speech and proposed $8.5 billion budget was safe – it was bit of a surprise for a state that ranks last in economic growth, at the bottom of every business rankings and it tied for the highest unemployment in the United States. The biggest surprise was the amount of borrowing proposed by Chafee. While Chafee’s proposed budget is safe, his final quote did capture the immortal words of Taylor Swift, “RI’s a good place, a really good place.” For those looking for bold action and dynamic new policies the Governor’s budget was lacking. For those seeking for caretakers approach, the speech and the proposed fiscal policies were a dream come true. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/chafees-budget-calls-for-big-barrowing-and-sparks-reaction
