Could the State have used $670,000,000 to help pay for things like "government"? We may be seeing signs of a mild economic slow down but after 2 years of $3+ billion deficits, if this continues, we should start to see significant cuts in govt payrolls...then the economic effects will be bad for all. Lower house prices, more unemployment, cuts in services and Medicaid. We've been lucky with each previous downturn since the mid 80's but I keep wondering if it will be different this time?
