One, we have high taxes because we have good services. We want that, here. That doesn't need explaining to you because you have no experience with it. We have good roads, good infrastructure, good schools, a robust safety net for women and children - especially children. We take care of our own, a Biblical principle I don't expect you to know much about. Isaiah 58, if you want to know what ultimately happens to nations, and people, that refuse to care for their needy and down-trodden.
Maybe, just maybe, you fine little conservative wrecking balls could be constructive for just a bit? Btw, if you are so effing brilliant and your policies so great, why the crash? Why the crash after Reagan's folly? Why, when all is said and done, cons have grown government more than anyone since Johnson? You realize Reagan grew it about 185%, little George about 89%, right? Clinton? About half of what little George grew it. Carter? About 38%.
Stop lying or get educated. One or the other, please.
According to liberals high taxes mean no deficit and your state has among the highest in the nation and 15 billion deficit in 2010. Facts don't mean anything to you yet you tell me I am lying. What is it about the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Sunshine Review that is a lie. Just saying it doesn't make it so. Seems those numbers worked quite well when Clinton was taking credit for the employment but not now? 9.6% unemployment is terrible yet for some reason you think that is a good thing. One of these days you are going to get a job and find the value of more take home pay. Hope I am around to see that.
