That Didn't Take Long

After admitting their own estimates for the budget were woefully inadequate, and having to reveal the truth that they needed tons more tax revenue to cover the tons more spending they plan, the administration revealed more taxes, of course. Why would they EVER lower spending?

I love the line from the source, who “who could not be identified under the ground rules of a briefing for reporters,” as if that ever stopped reporters before.

The source said the loopholes were “unjustifiable tax breaks that we simply can not afford.” That’s right, it’s THEIR money, and they simply can’t AFFORD to let you have THEIR money. You earn it but it’s theirs to spend as they wish.

The State will take all and care for you. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
