It's funny to...That's a really good point. It's funny too that in Michigan the gubernatorial candidates say the exact same thing as the ones in Wisconsin. "I'll create JOBS!" "No, I'll create MORE JOBS!" And the answer is always to cut taxes.<br /><br />OK, Mr. Super Businessman Rick Snyder formerly of Gateway (the cow computer people who were big in the 90s and now I didn't realize they still made computers), if you cut your "business"' revenue, then where are you going to make up for it? I mean the state is already broke, so it's not like we have a big Rainy Day jar we can break open to use.<br /><br />Probably if I went to his website he'd blow a lot of sunshine up my rear about new jobs making up for it. Really if your "fiscal conservative" candidate's plans call for paying for stuff with money that doesn't exist and might never exist, then it's probably not a good idea to vote for him. Because in proper accounting (the stuff they don't use on Wall Street) you have to actually go by the revenue you really have and not fantasy money.<br /><br />Anyway, this election year is just stupid. I saw a poll on Yahoo! saying that 63% of people think Bush screwed the economy. So now they're going to bring in a bunch more Republicans. What's the point? We need a third party, one that's actually a realist party instead of just trying to blind us with easy answers and quick fixes that never actually fix anything.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.com
