That Scratching Sound You Hear

That sound, my loyal readers, is the sound of nervous politicians' and bureaucrats' feet and hands in the wake of the tax cuts approved by the Florida Legislature yesterday.

Frankly, big government getting nervous about the future of bloated bureaucracy is music to my ears. Perhaps they should concentrate on cutting fat, not scaring people into thinking that basic services will be eliminated.

Of course, that would mean their jobs are in jeopardy. Remember, politicians and bureaucrats are always looking out for Numero Uno, and that doesn't mean you and I.
