re: the state doesn’t haven’t enough employees to get them processed faster

And yet we hear that government employment at the state level is higher than it’s ever been. Government at every level is just about the only one hiring these days, and yet every state complains of not having enough employees to get the work done.

Let a business in one of these three states ask for some more time to get their taxes paid because they are experiencing budget problems and see how far they get.

The state should be just as penalized for failing to return money to a business as the business would be for failing to pay the tax.

Good for the goose and all that sort of thing.

They keep hiring too many chiefs and not enough Indians

If the government employees would actually work, that just might make a difference.
