I hardly believe the closing of a bad chain diner is going to have a devastating effect.

It isn't a big loss. The one in West Hartford was abysmal, and had been for years.

Employees might have a different opinion.

That's the breaks.
In CT and the US, if you fail to produce quality products you go out of business and people lose jobs.
This is the reality of things.
Hopefully they will find new employment with better employers.

Connecticut’s current year budget deficit increased once again, rising another $66 million over the previous estimate and topping out at $96 million, according to a budget report for the Office of Fiscal Analysis.

This marks a $216 million difference between the budget, which estimated a $120 million surplus, and the reality of tax revenues and state agency costs.

Based on a 10 billion yearly budget that is only a variance of 2.16%. That is certainly acceptable.


Math is cool.

That is amazing, you're right.
The positive hits just keep coming. A dear friend's oldest child just landed a great role up there. No need to move out of state.
