The Great Kansas Tax Cut Experiment Crashes And Burns

The more troubling lesson for Republicans in Congress: While Brownback was reelected in 2014, his popularity has since plummeted and his approval rating now hovers at around 25 percent, second lowest among all sitting governors. And while the GOP enjoyed tremendous national electoral success in 2016, the party lost seats in the Kansas legislature. At least in one deep red state, the Trump formula of big tax and spending cuts is no longer the path to political success.

In 2012, Brownback called his tax plan a “real live experiment.” It appears to have failed.
 
It's not just Kansas anymore....
Oklahoma also took a ride on the Conservative Economic ride, and doesn't seem like it worked out too well. But on the bright side Trump did just raise taxes on blue state homeowners so looks like we've got them covered.

Republicans want to turn the entire country into Oklahoma

We have in this country an essentially unchanging disagreement about what model of governance will produce the best economic and social results. Democrats advocate what we might call weak social democracy: relatively high taxes (though lower than those of our peer countries), combined with a relatively strong safety net (though again, not as strong as other countries), spending on needs like education and health care, and economic regulation to protect workers, consumers and the environment.

Republicans, on the other hand, advocate low taxes, less social spending and less regulation. Both sides have moral arguments for why their models are better, but they also make practical arguments. They say that their model works, and that when it is implemented, we see positive results.

While the moral argument may not be resolvable, the practical argument can be tested. And right now we’re seeing tests take place all over the country. I want to focus on one such test, in the deep-red state of Oklahoma, and what it says about what Republicans are doing in Washington.

Like many states controlled by Republicans, Oklahoma has for some time been putting the GOP theory into practice: low taxes, little regulation and weak social spending. On the tax front, it has been particularly aggressive, since state law mandates that no tax increase can pass without a three-quarters majority in the state legislature. This has created a one-way ratchet, in which any tax cut is effectively permanent and taxes can only go down.

And has it produced the boundless prosperity Republicans predict? Well, no. In fact, the state is now in a full-blown fiscal crisis. Here’s a summary of the situation from NPR:

Riding high on the oil boom of the late 2000s, the state followed the Kansas model and slashed taxes. But the promised prosperity never came. In many cases, it was just the opposite.

Around 20 percent of Oklahoma’s schools now hold classes just four days a week. Last year, highway patrol officers were given a mileage limit because the state couldn’t afford to put gas in their tanks. Medicaid provider rates have been cut to the point that rural nursing homes and hospitals are closing, and the prisons are so full that the director of corrections says they’re on the brink of a crisis.

Just to reiterate: The state has so little money that 1 in 5 schools is open only four days a week. Gov. Mary Fallin and Republicans in the state legislature are debating a plan to increase taxes to try to address some of these problems, including giving a raise to teachers. Which is sorely needed, because Oklahoma pays its teachers less than any other state in the country.

Most while he was married, quite a few while his wife was recovering from child birth and nursing their newborn son and even some more that wanted nothing to do with him and his sick, perverted sexual advances. Quite the hero you have there. How far does your deviancy go? I'm sure things like sex trade slavery and the kidnapping of innocent girls and the like don't bother you either . . . slippery slope you're on there Chester.

Just calling it as I see it. Nobody new comes in here the first time and just starts dropping bombs like that.
Or else if he is new and he's going to come in like that then he'd better be a total animal with the rhetorical skills- or it's going to be rough in here for him.

Translation: "I'm a pathetic sad sack with no life who finds relevance and some kind of twisted acceptance by sitting in his underwear posting senseless drivel in a ridiculous chat room." #ohneato-acyberstud LOL!

Well, at least Mexico is building the wall. Wait, what? They're not? So we will build it and add to the deficit. Wait, Congress doesn't have it in the budget? Hey nutters, get to work!

You like your doctor you can keep your doctor....when those words were uttered, it was a lie & he knew it was a lie.
The wall hasn't been built yet and Trump still has a couple of years to go before his words become just another unattainable campaign promise...
As far as a budget, this congress and administration are following the lead of the previous administration & congress...
DC is a sewage...but you know that.

DC is run by Democrats and Republicans.
Even an ignorant dick wad like you should acknowledge that.
Speaking of bitch, whatabout you being a two faced hypocritical twat?
 
"Paul and other conservatives complained that the budget would've been adamantly rejected by Republicans if Obama was still in the White House. Republicans touted an $80 billion increase in military spending - which Trump touted as the largest increase in military spending ever - while Democrats highlighted an additional $63 billion in domestic spending, per Bloomberg.

Senator John Kennedy, a Louisiana Republican who opposed the bill, also hinted that he too might try to force a shutdown by delaying the vote after criticizing the vote's "price tag".

"It sucks," Kennedy said of the spending measure. "No thought whatsoever to adding over a trillion dollars in debt.""

Get to work! Get Mexico to build that wall! Hey Lion, I think I asked you. You didn’t change doctors, correct? I didn’t. And he just hired Bolton as his NSA, correct? After saying former Bush officials have no standing on Syria?
