Let's Play Make Believe
I want total honesty from my fellow BBA members on this one.
It's Wednesday June 22nd. You're a member of the GOP caucus in the Assembly - Do you vote for this budget or not? Why?
My answer: No.
I've long believed that this thing is more about November 2006 than any sort of long-term fiscal constraint on the part of the State Legislature. While I appreciate the continued efforts of those seeking a property tax freeze, it's pointless if state spending continues to grow.
I go back to my feelings back earlier this year: F*** the Freeze, Stop the Spending.
Until that happens, there's no state budget that I could get behind.
