Ah, gotcha, sorry for not reading the article.
Wonder how they would classify states such as NH, which have neither an income nor a sales tax?
Think there are too many variables to crank it down to a simple solution/cause.
IF thats the case, theyd probably classify as poor government engineering that doesnt bring in enough revenue, but Id classify it as one of the last free states around.
Im sure they would find some way to blame it on something that is a minor fiscal problem, the same way our pres wants to “freeze” spending in domestic agencies the year after he spends around 3 trillion in handouts.
Every thing is smoke and mirrors anymore.
Btw, I was talking about the article writer being hypocrites, just to make it clear.
