Waaaiiiit a doggone minute! Take your political shot and then call cooties?? NO FAIR! The budget crisis there, ANY government budget crisis ANYWHERE, is NEVER due to tax policies. It's due to insanely irresponsible politicians spending money they do not have, and then signing into law binding contracts to continue to spend money perpetually without funding it, in exchange for "favors" from the benefitting parties. Saying budget crises are the result of tax policies is like saying credit card debt is the result of low interest rates! IT'S THE RESULT OF THE CARDHOLDER SPENDING TOO MUCH!!!
Okay now I'm done. Besides this is not a discussion about politics, it's a discussion about economics.
