I do not doubt that this is the beginning of states having to recalibrate in order to take care of he necessities.    Some sarcred cows will have to be sacrificed or taxes will increase.   The best part is each state can decide what’s best for them.    It dovetails perfectly with so many states that already have balance budget amendments.   It’s about time we see some financially sound budgets.    Probably some public employee union contracts are going to get busted as we move forward in this new era hopefully.

But therein lies the problem. As with the Indiana/Kentucky issue years ago, Indiana didn't repair their roads and Kentucky businesses suffered.

What if Georgia decided to stop paving all lanes south of Macon heading south? What would Floridians do when tourism drops 5%?
