[QUOTE="HTR:837260"]Well for those of you who want to know where we can make up the difference, DESPITE the 41% waste in government spending heres a few places to look and get pissed off at (and yes, funding for local services like schools and Emergency services are raised by the towns and districts they serve. I'm an EMT here in town as well when I'm not running the label). Here are a few examples of waste we can get rid of: · $7 billion in refinancing cost for the Big Dig. · $2.55 billion MORE added this year to the lucrative pensions for retired stategovernment employees - who get 2-3 times the retirement income you'll get if you're an average taxpayer. Government employees retire in their 40's 50's and early 60's - while you have to work until your late 60s. · $1 billion in tax subsidies to multi-billion dollar bio-tech pharmaceutical corporations. · $2 billion in interest payments every year for unnecessary debt spending to fund road projects. Pay for roads with gasoline tax and auto registration fees, and there is no need to rack up debt. Liquidate some of the state's many financial slush funds to pay down debt and reduce interest payments. · $138.7 million tax subsidy to millionaire movie stars and directors. · Several billion dollars/year in excess government employee health care benefits. Bring their copays, deductibles and coverage in line with the average taxpayer. · $60,000 to $70,000 a year paid to toll collectors - plus benefits, plus pensions. This is for [B]UNSKILLED[/B] jobs – counting and making change. A job that can be done by public schools 5th graders, high school dropouts, people trying to get off welfare, or even mentally challenged individuals who want to be contributing members of society. But instead, these jobs go to people who have political connections. D:[/QUOTE]
