I’m a registered Democrat, but I’m disgusted. These increases aren’t going to solve the problem. Maybe it’s time to start cutting wasteful spending and chop some of the social services benefits, welfare, prison spending, union payoffs, etc. Oh, wait, I’m preaching to the choir.

I know the polls suggest majority support for this tax initiative, but I really wonder if people will actually vote for it when the time comes.

Blog sentiment is telling. Most posts say “Enough already. Just cut!”
