Tobacco Settlement Was For Health-Related Expenses

Thurber’s Thoughts: UPDATED: Tobacco settlement was for health-related expenses

From Thurber’s Thoughts:

Well, I thought so!

Earlier I posted about the state's idea to take tobacco settlement money as part of the funding for a supposed 'economic stimulus' plan. And I questioned why we'd be taking money out of a fund that was supposed to pay for future medical-related expenses.

Today's Blade has an article about the tobacco companies making their yearly payment for the funds and it reiterates that these funds are for health-related expenses.

So if the state wins their lawsuit and raids these funds for a nebulous economic stimulus, where will they get the money to pay for all these health-related expenses that they sued over?

Inquiring minds....

Comment: More magnificent governance from the Republican led General Assembly!

Folks, is this the best we can get out Bob Bennett and his merry band at the ORP? We say no! Not One Red Cent until republican ideals return to Ohio.

The Boycott

Not one red cent! That’s right; we’re calling for a boycott of the Ohio Republican Party. Ohio has been experiencing a depression for fifteen years; that’s right for fifteen years Ohio has been in a depression that goes beyond the rust bowl days of the 1970s. But who has been at the helm during this era of high taxation, over regulation, a poor business climate, and the flight of our most productive age group to other states; the Ohio Republican Party (ORP). The ORP for the last fifteen years has raised taxes, increased state government bureaucracy, strangled the business sector, but most of all, wasted our hard earned wages, the wages we must give through taxation and squandered it all away.

Currently the ORP has a donation effort called “88 in 08,” we say bunk! Not one red cent will be given until real leadership change comes to Ohio. Not one red cent until free market norms return to Ohio! Not one red cent until limited government returns to the General Assembly! Not one red cent until our party leadership is put out to pasture! Not one red cent until our lawmakers get their hands out of the business sector, and remove the regulations restricting business growth in this state! Not one red cent until our Republican politicians stop aiding the socialist agenda. We say not one red cent until the Republican politicians return to Republican principles!

This site will emphasize the absolute stupidity being conducted by our Republican politicians in the General Assembly and the ORP. We will draw attention to the collusion between Republican politicians and those opposition (democrat) members that seek to remake Ohio into the secular socialist state that we have seen emerge in Michigan, Illinois, and North Eastern States. We will highlight ORP politicians’ efforts to increase the power of government and its affect on the lives of our families and communities. Yet central to our effort is to lobby Ohio republicans, conservatives, and libertarians to withhold donations from the ORP and our republican elected officials until serious change comes to the ORP. These folks in 270-Beltway have deaf ears, but they never stop thirsting for donations. Hit them where it hurts; in the pocketbook! Say no to “88 in 08,” and say NOT ONE RED CENT!
