There’s always a catch

From the Boston Globe: “Mass. Senate endorses tax cut”:

Senate lawmakers voted yesterday to lower the income tax rate from 5.3 percent to 5 percent…
Hooray!

…if state spending on education and local aid is restored to levels last seen before the fiscal crisis of 2002.
D’oh! A tax cut in Massachusetts? It almost got mighty cold in Hades.
