Careful ---- you're playing word games.

Every state has a 'balanced budget' - no state has balanced income/outlay performance, which is, obviously, the real issue.

LOL, wow, are you really this poorly informed? You don't even know what is going on in your own state

And many government efforts work out just fine, as I've shown. You still haven't stepped up. But I have to leave you for awhile. perhaps when I get back you'll address the issue.

Let me guess ... they don't have REALITY where you live, huh?

Government oversight, on average, add 38% to the cost of programs. Thus, when the state sends them a dollar, and the Feds send it back, only $0.62 makes the trip.

I love your 'challenge', though ... you ask a nonsensical question, and then trumpet to the stars about how somebody else has lowered themselves to the level necessary to respond, and how that somehow invalidates everything else they have said from birth until some mystical point in the future.

The real issue with the right is how to change the topic when their claims are proven wrong.

He raised taxes to balance the budget. He didn't cut spending.

Three years in a row - 2004, 2005 and 2006 - Romney proposed lowering the state income tax from 5.5% to 5%.

Three years in a row his Democratic legislature shot that idea down.

He balanced the budget by raising fees and closing loopholes. He didn't raise taxes.

Really? so that is why Detroit is bankrupt?

So that is why every ****ing democrat in Illinois wants to raise taxes?

Few states have a balanced budget, the rest spend more than they take in - which BTW is irresponsible and ridiculous.

We elect representatives to government and they're so stupid they cant even balance a checkbook, and the only ones who don't seem to have a problem with this are progressives because they believe they can spend as much as they want and then raise taxes - it's absolutely disgusting.

Their logic is so far gone it's amazing....

Using the progressive logic progressives use to justify their spending I should be paid based on my lifestyle and anyone who criticizes my lifestyle is a hater.

The number of paying customers dropping by 1.4 million would be a terrible thing, yes.

Good thing the # of paying customers went up

Like I said, by Gallup's numbers they couldn't have increased the number of paying customers given the number of people who lost their insurance before open enrollment began.

Detroit is not a state

You think I don't know that? No - Detroit is just the singularity that eats all the taxpayers of Michigans hard earned money. Detroit is the reason why Michigan is in the red...

Most major cities bleed states dry because they're havens for progressives who love to spend money - money that's not theirs but believe it is.

If it makes you feel better saying Romney balanced the MA budget by raising taxes, and you are using his words about what the SCOTUS said the penalty for not buying ACA insurance was (a tax) to somehow try to make a point, that's okay. Not relevant, but okay.
