Minnesota Goes From A Surplus To A Deficit

[HikerGuy83]

Minnesota state budget is a disaster waiting to happen, thanks to Gov. Walz and the DFL-controlled legislature

How does a state go from having an $18 billion surplus to potentially facing a deficit in a space of less than a year? The answer is reckless spending.

State House
The answer is reckless spending.

Another example of a government gone stupid. Democrats had the State House, the Senate, and the house. They took an $18 billion surplus and now apparently heard about $10 billion in deficit.

I was unaware of this until recently.

States need to have balanced budget ammendments.

Or, there never was a surplus. California does it all the time. The create a projected surplus. Then spend it. Since the surplus was never real it becomes a deficit.

Minnesota Republican Tax Cuts

Minnesota went from 4th to 46th in the nation for being good for small business. That happened during Tim Walz' 8 year reign of terror as Governor of Minnesota.

I read today that Montana is debt free and has a 2.5B dollar surplus for their rainy day fund and tax relief. I guess Gianforte accomplished this feat in '23. Impressive considering what was going on in the rest of the country.

 

[Concerned American]

Must be Republicans

Yeah, republicans like Gianforte in MT. Debt free in 23 with a 2.5B dollar surplus that was used for a rainy day fund and tax relief. Try again moron.

Repubtards fabricated a fake projected surplus, so they could pass a tax cut that burdens citizens with massive debt, interest rates, larger future taxes & inflation.

Republicans never cut spending.

I love the smell of democrat ignorance exposed.

This state is debt free. Why isn't Washington?

Reckless spending in Washington has left our nation and future generations saddled with $35 trillion in debt, as recently noted by the Treasury Department. It doesn't have to be this way.

I'll ask....again.....asswipe.

Is this some lame attempt to deflect from the combined stupidity of the Minn legislatures ?

That tax relief will be massive debt in a couple years when their shell game surfaces if they didn't cut REAL spending.

Never trust a politician, especially a Republican promising tax cuts without FIRST cutting REAL spending & paying off the REAL debt, not projected debt.
