Abstract
"Politics + Other Mistakes" piece commenting in tongue-in-cheek style on Gov. John Baldacci's plans to help get state finances out of the red. Baldacci says his plan to consolidate schools and jails would save about $70 million by 2015. But Richard Silkman, vice-president of the Maine Public Spending Research Group, believes the state needs to cut $467 million from Medicaid and $220 million from education if it wants to reduce its tax burden to something approaching the national average.
