re: #263 palomino

If the Gov were really serious about balancing the budget, wouldn’t he have refused to rescind tax increases on those above 300k?

Mitch Daniels caught some grief for tax hikes in IN, but, as part of an overall approach to deficit reduction, he was pretty successful.

Not sure exactly what you are referring to. Could it be the tax cuts proposed that will cost the state a projected $140 million in tax revenue?

If so then you should know they are not proposed until the next two-year budget, from July 2011 to June 2013. So the cuts are not even in effect yet, and therefore not be part of the current budget problem.
