ut we're still facing the "fiscal cliff" next year and JBE's tax hikes have not helped La's economy but hey atleast we can afford to pay the state employees, lawyers, and can afford other wasteful shite (i.e. the charity hospital system).

The fiscal cliff is caused by the elimination of the temporary taxes passed in 16.

If the legislature had done its job in the Fiscal session they could have cut some damned spending and balanced the budget. Instead they just ignored it.
