Something tells me the cities/towns won't cut back like they should and somehow the general public is going to pay dearly for this too.

Confiscatory wealth taxes?

Slave Labor?

[unixfox]

Do what us peasants have to do.

CUT SPENDING!

[redcatcherb412]

Tax hikes galore coming along with hands out begging for fed bailouts. Taxpayers will get triple zapped at local/state/Fed tax levels which will then result in entitlement increases for that $20 loaf of bread.

-1- Localities issue bonds.

-2- The Fed buys the bonds.

We’ve got a sales tax election in July in our county for teachers. It’s going to get creamed, since the teachers all got a two month paid vacation.

Privatize trash collection. But NOT to mob-owned businesses.

“What happens next?”

They open the doors to commerce.

It’s Trump’s ultimate trump card.

They have to open the doors or they will not survive fiscally.

Sales & property taxes increase dramatically.

Don't worry, it'll only affect that other guy -- the "rich" one.

The smart move would be to cut nonessential spending. If receipts are down by, say, 30% then cut spending by 30%. But that doesn’t mean that all areas should get equal cuts.

Those “fact-finding” trips to Europe? Gone. The funding is cut 100%. That stupid LGBTQ outreach program? Gone. The funding is cut 100%.

Of course we know that won’t happen. Instead a few fire houses will be closed. And taxes will be raised.

Just can’t WAIT, to see when Nancy Pelosi is going to take a CUT in her salary, and Diane Feinstein, saying WE CAN DO BETTER THAN TRUMP, IF HE DOESN’T TAKE HIS CHECK, WE’LL DO THE SAME. Let’s see them better his record. Joe Biden and Obama could take a cut in their retirment.? Lets see POLitICIANS take a little loss, like the farmers who dump their milk... and herds of cattle being destroyed. END Career Politicians.

[Tax-chick]

Fire their employees, default on their debt and pensions, etc.

[Ex gun maker.]

Open Season on productive Americans, but illegals will remain a protected class.
ESL expansion, job retraining for Americans cut.
Higher sales, State, and property taxes.
Gov. will grow faster, our freedoms will diminish, and we will pay more.
AKA, the same old same old.

[centurion316]

What happens if the government shuts down retail and service businesses including the health care system? No sales equals no sales tax, duh.

[metmom]

Who couldn’t see that one coming?

Except the dems.

[cp124]

Higher sales tax. General Mills in Maine is already working on it. Not one thing has been cut in Maine government.

[meyer]

Open the economy and this problem will slowly go away.

Politicians made this happen.

[17th Miss Regt]

You folks are all focusing on the financial aspects of this. But no one is discussing the other aspects of the lack of sufficient tax revenue. Blacks will be re-enslaved and homosexuals will all be thrown off roofs. Browns will all be deported (even the legal ones) and children will all be neglected and starve. The forests will all be razed to the ground and sea levels will rise dramatically. Membership in the Klan will skyrocket and women will lose the right to vote. Not to mention cats and dogs living together.

* Property tax levy here, failed. Winning.
* Dewine Ohio, massive cuts, Winning.
* States and locals going for free Fed cash Bailout. Losing
