What happened to the Budget Deficit Solution??

Just five months ago voters were told of the need to impose a one-cent sale tax increase for the next three years to balance the budget.

NOW??

Arizona faces a budget deficit of over a billion dollars this year IF the voters pass the propositions allowing the stripping of over a half billion from First Things First and Conservation Funds.


Think that is bad?? Well, the projected budget deficit is $1.5 billion in FY 2012- if their projections are correct (They never are correct, the reality is ALWAYS worse than the projection).

To make things worse, the budget deficit will continue to get worse in fiscal year 2013.


NOW COMES THE REALLY BAD NEWS!

In 2014, the deficit will double with the expiration of the three year temporary sales tax.

Anyone shocked that, once again, the electorate has been snookered by those we have hired??

Early ballots are expected to be in your hands by October 8. The people we elect this year will have the responsibility to solve this problem. Make sure your candidate is committed to CUT THE SPENDING! Nothing else will work! CUT THE SPENDING!
