One possible way out of our state's budget mess

Arizona, by constitutional limitation, can't borrow more than $350,000 to make up a deficit. But it can borrow money to fund the suppression of an insurrection. So if college students really want deficit spending to keep up education funding, all they have to do is rebel against the state government, and they'll get all the deficit spending they want.

  1. But how do we rebel against the state government?

  2. Rising up in arms should do nicely.

  3. I hate stupid people and their poor budget plans. You always have to have money saved in case something like this happens. Why is there never a budget SURPLUS??

  4. There is, occasionally. Mesa actually had a rainy day fund. The problem is, they've already exhausted it.
