Strictly boilerplate - Reliable Boston Globe liberal Derrick Jackson calls the effort to roll back the Massachusetts sales tax "A cut we can't afford." Funny how we were able to get by just fine with the lower rate for years, but pay that no nevermind. Instead Jackson rolls out the standard imagery of firefighters forced to use water pistols used to justify every expansion of government. Keep on thinking it's all "tea party craziness" buddy - it's a handy rationalization.

I wish I had any skills at all as an accountant. I would love to be able to go through the budget of a city that's cut "to the bone" and see what they consider essential. I can only imagine what things take priority.
