Comments on: Possible sunshine law violations cloud decisions on public employee health plans http://ilind.net/2009/12/02/possible-sunshine-law-violations-cloud-decisions-on-public-employee-health-plans/ Ian Lind • Online daily from Kaaawa, Hawaii Tue, 14 Feb 2012 05:21:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: ohiaforest3400 http://ilind.net/2009/12/02/possible-sunshine-law-violations-cloud-decisions-on-public-employee-health-plans/comment-page-1/#comment-9544 ohiaforest3400 Wed, 02 Dec 2009 21:42:36 +0000 http://ilind.net/?p=3821#comment-9544 Without at all diminishing the gravity of the obvious Sunshine Law violations documented here, the violations themselves point to how dysfunctional the EUTF Board has become. If it has to resort to obvious Sunshine Law violations to operate at all, the law establishing EUTF, and the administrative rules by which it operates, need to be overhauled, if the Legislature has the political will to do so. Of course, the Governor has contributed by appointing or directing members who will not, or can not, play nicely with the labor friendly trustees. And public employees get caught in the middle. But, considering they are every uninformed demagogue's favorite whipping boy, who cares? Kafka Claus is coming to town . . . . .
