Yep. And that's what allowed them to get away with having the lowest taxes in the country by far. It was grossly irresponsible, though voters have themselves to blame for thinking we could have top-notch public schools, roads, and hospitals and extremely low tax rates. We sold out the heritage fund for trips to Mexico, new SUVs, and dinner at Earls' once a week.
