Utah's projected surplus shrinks by $340 million

The goods news is that this means there won't be any tax cuts.

Utah has over 4.8 Billion to spend. They are lying to us again...

Google cafrman and go to the website that shows all of the states surpluses. They use two sets of books. The comprehensive annual finance report is the real set of books.

They use two sets of books so that they can point to the false one and tell us that they need to tax us more .

What can a little taxpayer do about what they say? If these politicians didn't have the track record to prove they don't always say the truth, we might be concerned. Money and politicians are like alcohol and driving--its dangerous. Do what you want boys, us idiots out here have no control over your CULT decision making anyway.

We have been running a budget surpluss for a few years now, why is it that the government won't return that money to us. The money is ours, and has only been given to the government to benefit society. If they have funded the government programs and offices, they should return what they didn't spend.

It is like giving your child $20 to purchase some groceries for you. If you give them $20, you would expect them to give you your change back. Otherwise your child will keep the money and blow it on something later. It isn't about greed, but about returning money to the people who gave it to them.
