VA Likely Faces Steep Tax Hikes Due to Dem Spending

Taxes are likely to increase a lot in Virginia over the next several years. Democratic spending proposals will add at least a billion dollars annually to the state budget. These costly proposals can't be paid for without raising taxes, because the cost of existing state programs is already rising faster than state revenue. That leaves too little money to pay for new programs, unless there's a tax increase.

Indeed, state revenue will shrink due to several labor policies that Democrats are likely to enact in the next legislative session. Those policies will eliminate 100,000 jobs or more. Job losses reduce state income tax revenue, because unemployed people have less income. They also cut state sales tax revenue, because unemployed people have less money to spend. The result will be a gap between higher spending and lower revenue. To eliminate that gap, the state will have to raise tax rates a lot.

Nope, Delingpole is propaganda meant to fool FatRumpers... sure fires happened in the past, but it’s all about how intense they are and how FREQENTLY they happen:

Big data integration shows Australian bush-fire frequency is increasing significantly

BTW, the serious effects of climate change are only recently beginning to appear. So, posing 20 year old dat is misleading (as the shill means to). The models have this only getting worse going forward.

That article is from a highly respected SCIENCE journal, not some extreme right wing asshole climate science denier. You FatRumptards are really fucking stupid.
