Look, anyone that draws a salary from the taxpayer has to face the fact that we all get a say in their salary, but I don't like these "kill the legislature" proposals that do nothing about the problem, and only punish those in office.  Because it feels good.

I don't know what that job is worth, but we passed term limits in a rush to punish politicians, and look how that turned out.

The legislature's job isn't  just to pass a budget, a bunch of trained seals could do that.

And I find it odd that anyone on this website would be upset about the lack of a budget, seeing as how the only way this thing could be resolved amicably would be to give in to the governor.

I sat in the house and senate gallery in 2007 till the wee hours of the night hoping the government would shut down, even though that meant I wouldn't get a paycheck.  It was the principle then, and now.
