i've been following this pretty closely too. i hope they man up and raise taxes. although i think they all probably pay themselves too much and could cut spending from programs that aren't schools/social services i doubt that's going to happen by tomorrow. taxes are the best right now. i don't need money, anyway. i can just eat sticks or something. what i need is school.

i like the idea of including salons, country clubs, dry cleaners, etc into sales tax. i honestly think if they really want to solve the deficit, tax liquor more! as a smoker, i'm taxed out, but will take it if i have to.
