With sales tax ~9% (recently changed in my state because our politicians don't know how to live within a budget) it will be just over $200 total.
Sounds like the state I live in, constant poverty. Seriously though, I'm in Wa state and we have 9% sales tax, probably be 10% before long. I absolutely loathe gov Gregoire, what a biatch tool that one is. Spends her whole campaign talking about how Bush put us into a deficit, all the while over-spending the "surplus" she claimed we had, and now we'll be paying it off for some time to the tune of numerous budget cuts, including school cuts she said she's never make AND taxes she claimed she would never raise.
Sorry Chrissy (you know like the dumb blond on Three's Company), you can't have it both ways. You tend to argue yourself into a corner when you claim in your first term you created this huge surplus, only to argue that the reason it's suddenly gone is because George Bush single handedly ruined our state economy in less than 4 yrs everytime someone points out that you over-spent the budget.
It would be nice if for a change hardcore liberal politicians would actually admit to their OWN mistakes. I mean sure Bush made some mistakes, but much of what he's blamed for has been brewing since well before he took office. It's always the guys that look like idiots when they make speeches and stumble with their answers that take blame for things they've not even done.
This harkens back to the train wreck disaster that Dixy Lee Ray was as governor of this state. I can only hope people will eventually wake up and see that Gregoire is every bit as big a crook if not more so. It should have been obvious by now with the casino payoffs she's taken. She should never have made it into a 2nd term, though there's some evidence of ballot count tampering.
