One Flew Over Grand Junction's Cuckoo Nest

Governor “Ratched” Ritter’s budget priorities are indicative of his values. On one hand Ritter uses public monies through his energy office to subsidize solar panels on the homes of, well, the “largely underserved” populations in the communities like Aspen and Carbondale. On the other hand, Ritter cuts services from societies’ most vulnerable populations. Governor Ritter should divert his NEED grant program dollars to serving the disabled. How about donating Tom Plants’ six figure salary to shoaring up the regional center to maintain beds for Colorado’s marginalized clients?

If having wealthy people receive subsidies to for solar panels on their homes is more important than serving someone with Cerebral Palsy at the Grand Junction Regional Center then Governor Ratched, I mean ehh, Ritter, needs to be replaced indeed!
