Expose The Hypocrisy

The First Budget

Now, I'm no expert on the state budget, but in all I've read about Deval Patrick's first budget, but I'm hearing more often the words "increase," "bolster" and "boost" and not enough "decreasing" and "cuts" (if any at all)--and this coming from the guy who has been saying for over a year that Massachusetts is in a fiscal crisis. The Patrick Administration said they were going to make people unhappy with some budget cuts, but where are these cuts?

It sounds like we are in for a tax increase; how else will we pay for the increasing, bolstering, and boosting in the budget? I guess we'll see for sure once the budget is unveiled tomorrow, but you can't help but worry for the sake of your wallet.

Tax Freedom = higher taxes

Closing Tax loopholes = higher taxes

It should be interesting to see which other deceptive terms he uses to spin higher taxes tomorrow.

I understand that Deval provided very little detail regarding the specifics of the cuts. So much for "openess".

I'm really getting tired of having my wallet referred to as "revenue".
