text: Ever notice how Gov Ige's thrity years plus in the legislature, amounts to nothing much but being a bench warmer? I would have figured in 30+ years in the legislature that the State of Hawaii would be much better off and more prosperous than it currently is;what with democratic claims of supporting education in the islands, claims of solving homeless issues and more, with nothing to show, but lip service for our votes!  Hawaii's educational system under the democratic party mono-rule has been camping the bottoms of the basement with very little improvement; teachers have also been languishing under the same system with low retentiton rates and lackluster wages.  The only things that seem to be going up are our utility bills, the costs of living in our state and taxes!  Just imagine the effects if Hawaii actually had a multiparty political system, instead of a monopolized one as it has had for the longest time, maybe we could actually save a buck or two under a different system!
