When cutting taxes, the answer is always that any cuts will come from Police and Fire. These are the popular manipulative answers which put people back on their heals. The real solution is to realize that there are services which are NOT necessarily a part of government. There are services which should NOT be given if they are not viable. Services such as the huge library downtown is a prime example. Small local libraries will have much more impact on communities than the behemouth addon downtown. We should look at EVERY public position from the Governor to the local file clerk, and see if the service and production they supply is warranted AND MORE IMPORTANTLY is the VALUE of that service adequate. If the value is not there, the job needs to be changed or cut. Needing a pile of papers moved from one place to another might be needed, but we MUST look at the true value of that job. If the job is required, we need to look at its value and if it is less than the person's COST, it needs to be restructured or eliminated.

It's amazing to see how many of the Democrats are not understanding this.... The income tax plan won't go through. I think it's Bill Crawford and the Democrats messing with Daniels. Now they HAVE to defend it... Either way, it's an extremely DUMB plan. Yeah, they probably will… It’s amazing to see how many of the Democrats are not understanding this….

Now I am listening to Jean about how we should pay property taxes based on our income that is the worst thing I have ever heard. What a bunch of crap. Your guest will be looking for a new job after the next election. They really don't see what happened in the last election. Yes I think I am a Libertarian.
