Florida's CFO want to cut 30% office supplies purchases
02/09/10 04:18
Florida's Chief Financial Officer thinks he found a way to lessen the 3.2 billion dollar budget deficit for next year. Alex Sink thinks that they could stop purchasing non-critical office supplies after seeing an inventory of 537 pounds of paper clips, 37,601 binder clips, and 17,425 pens, that according to this official would last for years.
In a new conference and a press release, Sink said that it the state will save up to $14 million on 30% reduction on office supplies.
I don't think his office supplies constituents would be happy with this suggestion.
