Default Balancing the books

Seems to me its a national problem.....we keep electing officials hell bent on slashing income taxes. Sounds good, but the net effect is a reduction in federal cash flow to the states, where the laws usually require a balanced budget. If you take from one group, another gets stuck giving to make up the difference. IMO, the real estate owners get stuck disproportionately balancing the state books. Too bad us RE owners dont have the lobbying clout of the better healed corporations and special interest groups down on K Street in DC......
