Rick Lazio says:

"[Last year's state] budget should never have been enacted," said Rick Lazio, a Republican candidate for governor in 2010. He said instead of making harder, long-term fixes, Albany is "lurching from special session to special session ... we are barreling toward fiscal collapse. We need adult supervision."

Hey Rick, here's a very simple plan for avoiding "fiscal collapse" that even a child can figure out: Get your rapacious employer to pay its NYS taxes. 

The New York Times this week writes:

Desperate for cash amid the worst fiscal crisis in years, New York State is pursuing tax debtors more aggressively than ever before, doubling the number of cases it is investigating and seeking to collect from delinquents ranging from JPMorgan Chase to an out-of-business convenience store on the Bowery.

The Times also notes that JP Morgan dished out hundred of millions in bonuses over the past year.

Nice, huh?

We wonder if Rick pulled down any of this, and how much.
