NEWSFLASH!!! SUNFLOWER STATE BUDGET STILL NOT BALANCED: KANSAS TAX HIKE AGAINST GUV BROWNBACK DIDN'T WORK!!!

Kansas tax hike hailed as fix doesn't quite balance budget
Sun., June 18, 2017, 4:57 p.m. TOPEKA, Kan. - The big income tax increase Kansas legislators enacted over Gov. Sam Brownback's veto won't balance the budget by itself, despite immediately boosting the state's credit outlook.
This wasn't about fixing. It was about political points.
ReplyDeleteScamin' Sammy has done such a poor job running the government, no tax hike can fix it. It's a start though. You have to correct the mistake that started this mess before you can fix the problem.
