<font size="2" face="verdana,arial,helvetica">I'd rather not read the 160 pages. If you've read it, what part of this guy's summary is inaccurate? Everything he said made sense to me. Did he make up those numbers?

There was an interesting article in the local paper that basically stated that they planned the budget with the "new" tax money that would be brought in.. Why would people figure a budget with money that wasn't there? okay.. so that is a stupid question..

But I really REAlly REALLY wish someone would actually tell the truth about this whole money issue..
