tejek,

re:Did you think he was advocating tax increases?

I expect he was limiting them - even here in Washington one thing that has always rung true with regard to Eyman - was that "Politicians will never limit taxes".

There always seems to be just one more program that "really" needs money.

re:However, IMO things are on a wrong track and look to be getting worse instead of better.

Not sure, it's definitely a different track. Some would argue it is the same track that the last big growth cycle grew out of - deficit spending. Back in 1999 when I was paying over 40K in taxes per year because of capital gains I can tell you I thought I was paying too much tax, now I wish I had that problem.

Ted, re: Bill Sizemore,

I thought he was an anti-tax activist. His main goal in life, it seems, is to continually push initiatives that either lower taxes, limit tax increases, or limit government spending.
