Rhode Island Politics

The Signs of RI's Doom

Justin Katz

Matt and I discussed the forces affecting Rhode Island's politics on last night's Matt Allen Show. I expressed skepticism that the General Assembly will actually do much to reform pensions, referring to the four horsemen of Rhode Island's apocalypse — that is, the four groups that have locked in power in RI, and which the General Assembly must strive to appease to maintain the current balance.

the four horsemen of Rhode Island's apocalypse —

RI's problems result from a refusal by the electorate to "throw the bums out". All else, is an excuse.

I would put the 4 Horsemen more succintly as:

1. Cronies
2. Union Pigs
3. Welfare Leeches
4. Rich Marxists
