One thought on “Deborah Hearn Smith: Lawmakers should act on two key wage proposals

  1. If you won the million dollar lottery would you the go and maxing out your mortgage based on your income that year you won the lottery? You would need to continue winning a similar amount every year to pay the mortgage. That’s the problem with using one-time overages for pay for raises o any other recurring expense. You’ve permanently increased the expense without a recurring source of funding. When the funding is not there in future years it necessitates an increase in taxes or cuts in other program.
