StumbleLetter: Cut state budget across the board
Wednesday, June 18, 2003 | 8:54 a.m.
The solution to the state of Nevada's fiscal problem is very simple.
If current projected income is 90 percent of projected expenses, then all aspects of state government -- projects, personnel, education, negotiable contracts -- must take a 10 percent cut across the board.
Businesses and families have to do this so there is no good reason that state government cannot do the same thing.
Our representatives should remember that we elected them to protect our interests, and raising taxes is not in our best interest.
