Arizona Legislature prepares for drastic budget cuts

Joanna quotes our local legislators on their views about the budget, and they are united in the narrow and unimaginative. Rep Tobin dismisses the Brookings/Morrison report as "biased," which evokes the image of a ninth-grader challenging Einstein on physics.

The contrasting opinions are missing of course, as I predicted in my current column in Pop Rocket. You can go there to find out what the Dems would do if they weren't chained up in the basement.

Post a Comment

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
