First Rule of Holes : When you find yourself in one, stop digging.
It would be awfully nice if our Minnesota legislators could comprehend that simple fact. Minnesota faces a huge budget crisis this next legislative session. Exactly figures depend on who you ask but it seems to fall around the $5 billion range. With a deficit like that severe across the board cuts are all but a certainty. However, to at least stop the bleeding it seems like we should stop digging our own grave and stop the out of control spending.
Fortunately, at least one legislator, Rep. Kohls, understands this basic concept and is asking Minnesotans to join him in demanding a spending freeze. You can sign the peitition here, but you should also talk to your legislator. Explain to them the First Rule of Holes.
