If you are a politician and want 100 million for your pork barrel programs and you propose to or vote to raise taxes , you will get voted out. People don't want new taxes.

If howeever , you are a politician who needs 100 million extra for pork , you go out and raise all the user fees and impose new ones. That way you are never held accountable by the voters for actually raising taxes.

They call it taxation without representation and that's one of the reasons we fought the revolution.

Maybe I'm stupid but what ever happened to....this is how much money we have , how will we spend it? NOOOOOO Now its .....this is how much we want to spend , how will we get it out of the peoples pockets.

I forget the exact program but something like 3 years ago they vote to spend 10 million in 2002. Come 2002 , we don't have it. We say sorry , we don't have it , we can't spend it.

They sue the government saying we don't care if you have it or not. You voted to spend it , you must spend it or we'll sue! So if they MUST SPEND , we MUST PAY? Bull!
