Former Gov. David Ige started this folderol about offering higher salaries to hire the best talent, which has been echoed three years later by Senate President Ron Kouchi.
I voted for Ige and I believed he would do something different. He was not brave at all, similar to our congressional delegation who would not dare do anything to upset the left-wing, socialist Democratic party. They put party over place.
As soon as Ige sided with Mayor Kirk Caldwell on the unquenchable, insatiable rail project, I did not trust him.
Hawaii has been played big time, but nobody on the left will admit it.
