This is just bizarre. I have to wonder what's going on in Indiana and just where they're funneling their tax revenue?

They wasted a lot of money in a dogmatic attempt to privatise welfare - the usual people pay for these schemes as the dogmatic people responsible remain in power. Remember, kids... Private good, public bad, private good, public bad, private good...

Quite frankly, (and I live in Indiana) I will admit they screwed up when they tried to privatize a few things. I'm going to say the wrong companies were chosen in this instance, however you can fire companies, and sue companies a lot easier than you can sue a state. (I actually didn't see this story until now, since I tend to avoid looking at Yahoo's news reporting)

Private sector can be bad, and it can be good. However, of late I've seen quite a bit of corruption from the public sector.
