We have a deficit problem in New York State for the same reason we
have
one
as a nation. Our governments spend too much. Income is not the
problem,
spending is.

I suggest a short course in economics so you can discover that income
AND
expenditure are related. You would probably be the first to complain
if
the
government provided NO services at all!
In fact it's the rich who want a police force, fire department etc.
far
more
than the poor do :-)

No. The state has a spending problem. Is is that difficult to
uinderstand
that
when you spend more than you earn you need to curb your spending?

When the deficit comes after large tax cuts after there being a budget
surplus, it's not hard to understand that those cuts may be part of
the problem.

Which tax cuts are you referring to? New legislation was just signed that
will
give the average family a few extra dollars a week to take home. That's
the
first income tax cut in about 50 years. So, which tax cuts are you
referring
to?

Wow. You just completely blanked out during the Bush administration
didn't you? (And every administration & congress for the last 50
years, for that matter.)

This part of the thread you referred to was the discussion about New York
State.
I suggest you reread the exchange again.

I was talking about federal.


Yes you were but you were interjecting in an exchange about NY State taxes in
which there had been no cut in 50 years. That discussion was about the state,
not the fed.


Ok. I took "state" in "The state has a spending problem" to be the
general term since the previous post mentioning NY also mentioned the
national deficit.

I'm sure in that context my posts make more sense.


I see your point
