oh, so pa is the one state in the union that has a governor who unilaterally sets the budget? There's no voting contingent that examines programs set to be cut and determines whether they're valuable or not?
I would guess for the same reason that contributors respond to yours.

Oh, and by the way, Tom Corbett has been the Governor of PA only since 2011 which was way after the funding cutbacks were started so hardly deserves your calling him "Tom Slasher".

In a press release just a few months ago, PA Governor Corbett noted that, " ... Washington is cutting federal resources to our human services programs ..."
Wouldn't make me feel particularly safe, particularly since I doubt that researching jobs for those over 50 years of age is high on any state's funding priority list.

That has nothing to do with me since I don't work in human services.
By the way I just received a new printer today and my vacation for Sept and Oct has been approved. Feeling good right now

A city government agency which helps older people find employment always, to my knowledge, falls under the Department of Human Services umbrella.
