Hi Occhi my old friend :wub:

WHAT A CROCK OF $HIT [ALL of it...you're j/k right ?]

Edit: correct you'r to you're...only a spelling error or am I a moron ?

So, Jim, where is the revenue stream that pays for this entitlement? Tell me.

Maybe you can ask our resident economics student where the revenue stream is, in the out years, to fund this, if you are unsure.

Passing a law/bill looks good, but if you look at where the mandate is funded from, you find pixie dust.

Reagan passed a few unfunded mandates along in his day, which came under the guise of getting the federal government out of our pockets. They were replaced by state governments and local authorities having to reise revenue. The money has to come from somewhere. Here in our county, the sales tax was 6 5/8 cents in the 80's, and it is 8 3/8 now, but the worst part is that property tax, on proptert owners, has nearly doubled, and "assessments" in an area with a buyers market for over ten years keep magically going up and up. Yet my old boss sold his house for thirty five thousand under assessed value when he moved after he retired from the Navy.

Where is the money coming from, Jim?

Someone else? Or YOU?

I repeat, in case you missed it the first time: what kind of free lunch do you think is being served here? See RAH on whether or not there is such a thing as free lunch ...
