kansas is broke whoops

Quote:

TOPEKA, Kan. - Kansas has suspended income tax refunds and may not be able to pay employees on time, the state's budget director said Monday.

The state doesn't have enough money in its main bank account to pay its bills, prompting Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius to suggest transferring $225 million from other accounts throughout state government. But the move required approval from legislative leaders, and the GOP refused Monday.

Budget Director Duane Goossen said that without the money, he's not sure the state can meet its payroll. State employees are due to be paid again Friday.

This is what happens when you let liberals decide what to do with your money.

You can't blame liberals any more than you can blame conservatives at this point. Thats why I say we need to get someone like Slyvester Stallone as our president.

It's funny because conservatives would probably really go for that, even though he's the exact opposite of a war hero (he dodged the vietnam war draft by going to Sweden and teaching girls soccer or something and then made like a billion off that war).

Something makes me think they'd ignore all that if he was their nominee.
