Don't worry, I blame the Republican Congress too, and to the extent that they 
installed Bush in 2000, I even blame the Courts.  Clinton balanced the budget.

Pittsburgh is in dire straits now and the stadiums shouldn't have been 
built until our finances were under control.  But there's a fundamental 
disconnect between your desire to have services and a strong tech sector and 
your desire to have lower taxes.  The only thing worse than tax and spend is 
taxcut and spend.

I'm done, flame all you like.  I won't respond in this forum.

p.s. - While we're off topic, it's "you're", and "Bush's". 
p.p.s. - Only voodoo economists believe in curses. :)
