Senate Majority Leader Larry Pogemiller, DFL-Minneapolis, called the bill an “investment in the future bill,” because it would provide for sizeable increases in funding for K-12, preschool and higher education and property tax relief.
Just like that, say all the right things and Gov. Pawlenty will sign on with Democrats.

Minnesota is a beautiful state, but thank goodness I don't live there. They seem to have a tax fetish. I'm curious. Has Minnesota been trending Democrat or Republican over last few decades?

Why should the people of Minnesotastan complain? They elect Marxist's every election. So, they get what they voted for. Vote for socialism, higher taxes, abortion on demand, and you get it. They are now getting it. I feel absolutely NO sorrow for them. They got what that asked for. So, Minnesota, SHUT THE F UP AND TAKE IT. YOU ASKED FOR IT!!

Even back in the 60s (I grew up in MN and stayed through college at the U) I remember my dad complaining about us being "The Land of 10,000 Taxes."

This is a job killer. I may well decide to move my business to Texas. Doing business in this state is one big PITA anyway.

We’re pushing it (tax increases) a little hard this year,” said Sen. John Doll, DFL-Burnsville, who replaced a Republican in last fall’s elections. “I do have lots of folks who would be affected by this and it puts an extra burden on them.” Yes, calling the moving company to schedule the one-way trip to Nevada or Arizona is burdensome - but only for a short time. ;)

Dems take over a state. They spend like drunken fools. Then raise taxes "for the chillen"! And further decimate the state. Road to ruin.
