Who ya gonna call ??...
Not ''all taxes to max'' Gregoire, that's for sure.
Try California, and we can see how well they are doing. 15 BILLION in the hole!
Don't buy into one folks.

Renew the fighting spirit of the Revolution where we did not march through the woods and get shot but laid low in the grass and let them do the dying for their country.

Immeidatley after the election is the time to raise taxes, because maybe by the next election the voters will have forgotten what you did."
I would actually support an income tax. On one condition - every other form of revenue, state and local, was made unconstitutional by the same law, and any politician introducing a bill to collect revenue in any form other than a state income tax was guilty of a felony and not covered by any legislative immunity.
Somehow I think that condition would be a deal breaker with our current Governor.
