In the words of Angie Stone, I'm "So Pissed Off."

We've all been hearing about how states are running into crippling defecits and many states are considering increasing taxes and/or cuts in spending. Reading about this issue in relation to New York, I came across a disturbing quotation from Governor Patterson of New York:

[T]he higher we tax even the wealthy, the more we lose population and the less job creation there is. We're pretty resigned to the fact that we're going to have to do this with spending cuts.

So basically Governor Patterson wants to lend a hand to rich people by making life tougher for middle- and low- income families who depend on state services. After all, he doesn't wanna backstab his golden friends. This Democrat sounds like a Republican, implying that a "trickle down" theory of social justice is better than a few annoyed millionaires. Meanwhile, we folk at the bottom are paying the bill for Paterson's McCain/Bush-inspired economic bailout. Can we impeach him, please?
