I know nothing of this state’s politics or finances. Is he setting up for a future higher office run? or is there really $2 billion in waste every year in Maine? or is he planning to make up some of the revenue in another way?

Basically, he’s changing the way Maine functions. It’s been a corrupt, Massachusetts clone for years (I live in MA).

There is plenty of waste, and LePage has gotten to the bottom of some of it, with welfare and EBT reforms, etc.

Raising sales tax. Taxing nonprofits. Ending revenue sharing.
