After all what do "they" really give us back for the BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars we throw at them each year?
Us working folks are getting ROBBED each and every paycheck period!
I give the Govener 100% props for trying to keep our taxes from being the highest in the nation, and thereby keeping businesses and jobs from moving away to ANY other lower taxed state!
People need to quit winning about the availablity of the 1 or 2 things that the state requires only the state to do, and just back the Govener right now so our local business economy does't get jacked longterm.
IMHO......Rant......

wow, that was a rant, because none of it was based in reality.
the fact is, you are not getting robbed, taxes are too low to support these government items. they're so low, in fact, that pawlenty himself is trying to scrounge up money in other places, like toll roads, higher cigarette taxes, and state run gambling outfits. "no new taxes" should really say, "move your taxes around and try to hide them from you".
the BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars you spend enables the state to pay contractors to resurface roads, build new highways, and perform general maintainence, to name ONE area your money is used for. I assume you like cars and driving, since you are on this site, so, could you do with trees growing through your roads and pot holes the size of your car?
not me.
