I can’t count how many times we in Taxifornia have been told about future surpluses only to be begged to approve TEMPORARY tax increases when the surplus (as always) fails to occur! If the information is coming from the idiots in charge, you know it’s BullSh*t! Jerry Brown hasn’t told the truth since the delivery Doctor slapped his A**!

So 2015 will have a $100 billion deficit.

Laying eggs;
You know I spent better part of two hours working up my egg routine because I wanted to get the concept of candling an egg ie examining for fertility hence yield. But I’ll bet 97 out of hundred aren’t familiar with the term nor would seek its meaning. Then you follow up with yours

“It’s like that farmer counting the eggs those future chickens will lay and the eggs those eggs will lay in the future”....which works better,but still needs which came first, some work.

lol. Yes, or like counting your grand children before your even making kids.

Which came first... the chicken farmer... or chicken rancher... or something

That was my reaction. Remember the Clinton's projected trillion dollar surplus in 2000? We've seen this song and dance before. Projected surpluses have a way of evaporating with the morning dew. A-H Nagourney knows it damn well too, but he has a career to consider.

A budget surplus??? Alert the prison guard union.
