Bullshit.
Well, that's what they did in Kansas, dude. Kansas cut taxes, erased a surplus, created massive deficits, and closed those deficits by raiding the highway fund, closing schools early, increasing tolls and user/access fees, increasing tuition costs for state colleges, increasing co-pays and co-insurance for Medicaid patients, and raiding the welfare block grant. It's been well documented. Pay attention.
There's PLENTY money flowing into government hands. MORE than plenty.It's just wasted on luxuries for privileged elected officials, corruption, unnecessary welfare benefits to the undeserving and handouts to favorites.
This is a familiar, general, vague refrain that you hope casts you as some sort of spendthrift when the reality is that most of the waste comes from low taxes that supposedly create growth but never do.
Another one who's never been in the mayors office or council chambers of medium to large towns and cities and seen the spending on lavish unnecessary luxuries.. I guess you missed those photos of that IRS official who posted photos of himself sipping champagne in a bubble bath in a luxury hotel all paid for by taxpayers while on "official business". Last I heard, he kept his job.They blow through tax revenues like an addicted celebrity blows through cocaine.
More is wasted on tax cuts for the rich that never trickle down.
Conservatives say government is the problem, then get elected and prove it.
