Republicans in the Kansas Legislature have flushed $330,000 down the drain fighting about how best to raise taxes on working Kansans. It should be obvious that $330,000 would have been better spent hiring ten new Kansas teachers and not paying Kansas legislatures for failing to do their job.
Ironic, isn't it, if not also hypocritical? The political party that insists it's for small government spending is blowing a big hole in the state's budget.
We have Governor Sam Brownback and his very Republican legislature to thank.
And it ain't over yet.
