GOP tax plans would increase taxes on low-wage Kansans, decrease taxes for high-income Kansans, report says
I make more than $60,000. I don't want a tax cut. I want tax policies that encourage and help the poor and lower-middle income to obtain and keep meaningful jobs. I want a state budget that enables them to obtain meaningful eduction for their children so they and the state can advance.
I do not believe in John Galt.

Revenue Secretary Jordan says income tax cuts are key to budget deadlock
I'm sure Sam could find a faith-healer from Florida or Texas to hire (at a double salary) to replace them.

Freshmen Republicans in the House don't like options provided so far from their leaders
It costs a lot to posture as a Tea-Party conservative.

Another tax increase bites the dust in the House; Democrats call for end to session
Yes, he scripted this so he could play education's white-knight.

Kansas Legislature returns to face tax, budget decisions
Instead of resolving the budget/tax crisis, I predict more useless, absurd social legislation as a diversion; banning masturbation maybe.

House Republican leaders propose 1.5 percent cut to higher education for each of next two fiscal years
I think this whole drama was scripted by Sam. Everyone gets to burnish their conservative credentials, but Sam can also be the white-knight who rode in to save higher education from deeper cuts. (Sam wants to be president and knows he can't be if Kansas completely destroys higher education in Kansas under his watch.)
The whole thing is sickening.

Brownback, Gray-Little say stable state funding important to KU's efforts to improve
Or maybe S.B. told Republican leaders in the legislature to propose budget cuts to universities so they could look extra-conservative while he still could look both conservative and like an education white-night by suggesting stable funding. (He's the man behind the curtain.)

Kansas River cleanup canceled
So the river will be rising from very, very low to very low?

$1.5 billion KPERS bond proposal advances in Legislature
Will KPERS invest it as it sees fit, or will it be invested with a friend of Sam's; in a Texas or Florida hedge fund maybe?
