I honestly don't get it. State governments are floundering trying to cover their expenses. It seems like people need to make a choice: do we want these public services or not? If so: RAISE TAXES. God forbid we actually pay for the services we want.
- madair 16y agoA lot of that floundering is all about their big losses...Wall St, over-resourcing for the housing bubble, budgeting based on bubble math, widespread corruption and backroom dealing, oh, and there's that huge army fighting a couple big wars with a budget larger than the military of rest of the world combined.
- nradov 16y agoThat's a false choice. We can get the same level of public service for less by cutting public sector compensation.
