How much is enough?

How much is enough? I am refering, of course, to Rep Mindy Greiling's proposed tax increase "for the children". The DFL legislature has already proposed spending a 2.1 BILLION dollar surplus, the Governor's budget is a whopping $34+ BILLION and Rep Greiling wants to tax us MORE??????

We are not talking about taxing people making "millions" of dollars either.

"Under the proposal, income taxes would go up for married couples who make more than $123,750 and file jointly, unmarried heads of households who make more than $105,410 and single filers who make more than $69,990."

What will it take to satisfy Rep. Greiling? Will she be happy taking just enough to keep my family out of the poor house or will she not rest until we can no longer pay our bills and feed our children?

Maybe Rep Greiling will be happy when all the citizens move out of this state. Because I for one can not afford the DFL's tax increases. I will move rather than have this state confiscate more of my hard earned dollars. There is NOTHING that this state does that is worth my giving up 40% of my income. I have no problems paying my "fair share" but when the government demands so much of my income so that I can no longer feed my family...well so long Minnesota. I can get a job in Iowa or the Dakotas or just about anywhere that pays as much and the cost of living - ESPECIALLY TAXES - is a much lower burden on my family.
