60 - excellent point - "The ideal time for tax cuts is when the governments begin to have a surplus! We may prevent a recession like this, but we have career people in government who think they are successful when the government takes in more money and spends it to increase their business, the government."

Here in Texas we are now suffering through exactly such a problem - government failure to do that.

Thank you, I'm glad you let me know you understand what I am saying, sometimes I wonder if others do. The states and local governements did not have tax cuts during the years of prosperity, they did something with the surplus revenues, they increased their government. This point must be made on every editorial page in the country, repeatedly. Drum it in to to the people, it's our only hope. If not things will become so bad the government will have to take control of all and "save" us. Hahaha! Sounds out there, conspiratory, but it's not, just the obvious projected outcome. "The states need federal money to help their budget problems", I'm amazed to hear this. No, they need people from the private sector in postions of City Manager, Finacial Manager, etc. and term limits.
