Today's State - and a short rant

[mercuryblues]

3. Paying taxes

is too expensive, so I guess I can stop now. Bye-bye car insurance.

I wish they would charge developers impact fees. No more freaking bond referendums and penny sales tax raises. The legislture IS NOT doing its job, by passing the buck onto the voters.
I imagine they will hire some firm (read big campaign donor) for millions of dollars to come up with a plan to:

1/raise the # of voters per district

2/bond referendum to pay for the "plan"

They knew this was a problem and chose to ignore it.

They couldn't foresee that merging the departments about a year before a big election would be a problem either.
