State workers get pink slip under new budget

``"About 1,300 workers have lost their jobs under the new state budget approved by the Legislature and signed into law by Gov. Rick Scott... Firing the CSOs saves $900,000. That's a pittance, Gugliotta argues, compared to the waste that went into the $48 million courthouse in Tallahassee known as the Taj Mahal. "Why can't they sell two pictures from the Taj Mahal wall and fund us for another year?" Gugliotta asked.''
