Rell's Big Budget Plan....

Yesterday it was reported that, Part of Gov. Rell’s budget reduction plan includes $13.8 million in unclaimed bottle deposits. Rell thinks that the nickel deposits consumers pay for soda and beer bottles, many of which are never redeemed, belong to the state.

But of course, by the time I was able to scan and post this comic, the issue of using unclaimed bottle deposits is no longer on the table. However, Democrats said, this issue will come up again when the legislature convenes in regular session in January 2009.

oh boy... I can't wait.
