Maybe he intends to reverse the eminent domain for corporate gain crime the state committed in New London?
Sorry, couldn't help myself...
Sure is an interesting book though

Maybe he's going to announce a sales tax holiday through the end of the year, to boost his polls and draw shoppers from other states?
Just a wild guess. |

Just a wild guess.
What he is probably going to announce is an increase in the sales tax through the end of the year.

Malloy Announces Tropical Storm Irene Fraud Probe
»www.ctnow.com/news/hc-malloy-inv···82.story
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said Sunday that the state has launched a probe into potential fraud by state workers involving a program to pay victims of Tropical Storm Irene.
The probe centers on whether state workers falsified financial information in order to receive benefits stemming from Tropical Storm Irene that were administered by the state Department of Social Services.
Numerous citizens were seeking assistance and benefits after the devastating storm, and questions were raised immediately whether everyone receiving those benefits was actually eligible. |

Great, they might catch some 200 who have abused the program and cashed out some $150,000 total. The workers will get fired and qualify for other state aid.
They will probably spend $20,000,000 in the process. |

Malloy's got to make a big stink of it, and rightly so. If he doesn't, he loses even more credibility and the State has another chapter in the Scams novel.

The cost of fraud investigations and what not make the point that means testing, and the consequent fraud investigations, are costly.
Wouldn't it have been better to cut a check to each customer for a fixed amount?

| I remember an issue (don't remember exactly where and what dept was involved)...
A small accounting mismatch to the tune of few $ prompted an audit. They had to go over few years worth of records. The $3 issue was fixed at a cost of about $100k. |
