Re: Why Favor a Rate Hike?

That sounds just great when you put it in vague, faceless economic terms. When you start actually looking at the budget, however...
There's always plenty that can be cut in a state budget if you are willing to look hard enough. Things like welfare spending, aid for illegals, tax money for new sports stadiums (I don't know if they do this in MA but I am including it to be fair).

Oh, and did I mention that Massachusetts is a one-party state? ... people keep voting for Democrats and calls for more spending.
Well part of the problem there is that many people have simply given up on states like that. They just pack up and move to cheaper states. Inevitably, that helps to persist one-party rule.
