	I think the "Lege shoulda gone on and had the collective balls to"
stop spending so much money.  Income tax overdue?  At the current federal
income tax rate plus 8.5% sales tax, plus excise taxes, plus oil taxes,
plus battery reclaimation taxes, plus tire taxes, plus property taxes, etc...
you think we are overdue for another tax?  If you count it up, government gets
close to over 40% of ALL your money.  Isn't that just more than enough?

	New taxes aren't overdue, new politicians are...

	I for one will not play the lorttery. However, I think that if they
were going to increase income, they chose the right way: Voluntary taxation.
Actually, it is a gambling tax.  I choose to think of it as a Stupidity Tax,
a tax that I have been wanting to see for quite some time...
