I would say both, Foxfyre, since they both are playing shell games in reference to their budget woes. They're both going to make massive cuts. And then Ca has a state income but yet Tx does not. I see Texas slashing into the 30B dollar budget of education. How's California going to solve their debt? I think both states can solve the issue without raising taxes. California can't even afford to raise taxes. It's one helluva conundrum.
But in the interest of thinking differently about government, higher taxes to pay for government is the status quo. Texas seems to be taking a different tactic and it seems to be working. Businesses are fighting for places to locate in Texas. Too many job producing businesses have already bailed out of California and others are looking to follow suit.
So can you see no solution to the problems in government other than raising taxes?
