As the ship continues to sink, Mr. Matteillo takes credit for "...bold, aggressive leadership" on deck chair colors. Citizens of RI are over taxed and over regulated in exchange for deplorable public services. In order to pay for primitive roads, RI's gas tax is already in the top 25% in the country. Contrast that with the pristine roads of NH, where drivers pay a gas tax that is 68% lower than RI!! And Rhode Islanders receive what, exactly, in return for a state income and sales tax that those in NH do not receive? Have you noticed that URI is more expensive than UNH for in-state students? Major US corporations avoid RI like the plague for fear of being shaken down. The state's legislative body is seen as a sewer of corruption. The only thing missing from this puff piece is: "If you were a tree, Mr. Mattiello, what kind of tree would you be?"

From: Mattiello keeps economic focus, touts ‘positive, bold, aggressive’ leadership
