Gov. Brownback of Kansas may be heading to the UN? Yeah, that’s what it looks like.

Kansans are cheering. Because Brownback fucked up the Kansas economy royally with his tax giveaway to passthrough business entities (so every business decided it was best to set up as one). The GOP controlled legislature tried to repeal this nonsense because the budget was completely fucked up to the point that even the state supreme court said the state was failing to properly fund education obligations.

Brownback vetoed the plan. The GOP have been trying to push a Kansas style plan everywhere, including at the federal level. The mess Brownback leaves in his wake would be repeated everywhere.

So, if Brownback goes to the UN, the state has a chance to recover. Maybe.
