Hi, Ed, I read that there’s legislation proposed to abolish Lincoln’s Birthday. Why not abolish the Election Day and Columbus Day along with Martin Luther King Day Jan. 15? State employees have far too many holidays, including Good Friday, which to me is a religious holiday. Separation of church and state! Think about these holidays.

Make ’em Work

Take away enough holidays and you’ll start to lose state workers who live for that time off. Before you know it, we’ll balance the budget.—Ed. Note
