Ok, so the state has been collecting more than it spends for a long time and has accumulated $5 billion. How about the state gives some of that back to the people it collected it from? The surplus isn’t the result of brilliant management and flawless financial acumen. If you’re not gonna spend it, give it back.
The nation is poised for strong economic growth. The sky is not constantly falling….the left pushes this narrative and, conservatives, by nature, can be pessimistic.
It’s time for Indiana to make serious property tax relief happen!
Expand school vouchers so the poorest can get the best education available, Medicaid, while needing reform and constant review, should be funded adequately for those who need it.
Lastly, yes…bring new business here and grow this economy!
John, you’re laying out the path to do the exact opposite of growth. We’ve been cutting taxes for years and it’s not helped us do anything but fall further behind.
Here’s an idea – as a state, let’s try what is attracting people to the donut counties since we know it works. People and businesses are voting with their feet, just look at the census numbers.
Spending on schools.
Spending on infrastructure.
Spending on amenities for residents.
…and state support for daycare so low-to-moderate income folks can have safe, stable places for their kids to stay while they earn a living.
+1, Chris. For a supposed pro-life state like Indiana, it’s amazing how little we consider the cost of daycare as part of the equation. Even for higher income couples, it requires the salary of one of them for infant care.
