		<description>&quot;they’re not able to hire is because of the cultural problems they have in the system&quot;
Wrong, they&#039;re not able to hire because they have a Legislature and Governor problem.  A legislature that hasn&#039;t approved a real raise for state workers in over 8 years, and a Governor who continues to slash away at retirement benefits for state employees.  I guess we all know politicians wouldn&#039;t lie about what&#039;s really wrong. Blame it on the culture instead of themselves.</description>
