Okay, Republicans, now that you've had your ego stroked in a lot of states last night, maybe you can stop being all butt-hurt about the 2008 election. We have to work together if we are going to accomplish anything. We can’t be at loggerheads. The issue I want you to consider before you pull closed the purse strings is how are we going to still pay for needed social programs, teachers, police, fire fighters, infrastructure, aid to veterans, aid to the impoverished, etc without taxes to draw from? The state budgets are already skeletal. If we don't pay taxes, governments won't be able employ public workers. That won't help unemployment either. You say we can't afford to end the Bush tax cuts. I say we can't afford not to.
