How rare it is to see government wanting to return the peoples' money, instead of trying to hang on to all the money and power they can. Go Gov. Parson!

The House Minority Leader apparently feels that a senior making $20,000, or a single mother of two making $35,000 is wealthy. This is the thought process of the Democrat Party.

Excess money from tax revenue is a clear indicator that taxes are excessive and should be returned to the people that paid those taxes, not to people with their hands out.

How about using that money for our schools? Make them safer with metal detectors? Pay our teachers more? More supplies so teachers don't have to spend their own money on it?

Let`s spend some of that money on school security, which we all agree we need.

I don't mind paying taxes at the rate we have now as long as our elected officials can find a way to use it wisely

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

We're too close to 2026 and it'll take a long time to reverse.

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.
