MA: Mideast Budget 2012 (Debating)

AYE

Why did you vote on this?

"for the people"

I'm only bringing this up because I saw it mentioned, I know it hasn't been seriously discussed yet, but FTR, I am adamantly opposed to any effort to try and bring more toll roads to the Mideast Region.

I second A-Bob's statements. A balanced budget is ideal, but we can't gut our government.

GM shua has informed me that the higher beer taxes generates an additional revenue of $150 million. That's not much more than a drop in the ocean. In fact, our debt is still at $32 billion even with this small tax hike.

Maybe we could cut a little bit from a certain area? I'd like to cut a bit from our education spending.

That's one area I'd personally rather not see touched, considering the strain schools are already in, but it's you guys who vote.
