When you're cutting funding for education. Makes the soccer mom's testy.
Brownback came in with the promise that his tax cuts would stimulate business growth, hiring, and increase revenue. It didn't work out that way. The results have been budget deficits, credit rating reductions and, since education spending makes up over 60% of the budget, cuts in school funding. It may be that in the long run his tax cutting will pay off. But right now it isn't and it's hurting him.
it sounds like they made the tax cuts hurt ON PURPOSE by cutting things that are pure investment (schools)
rather than unnecessary busy work (government bureaucrat paper-pushers)
