I am absolutely convinced that the new  state administration will cut the 
Local Government Aid (LGA) money in order to close that $3 billion deficit, 
and that Minneapolis will take the biggest hit.  Then in order to keep up 
services, Minneapolis will have to drastically raise property taxes.  Not a 
pretty picture.  Does anyone see any way around this?  Cutting services in 
Minneapolis does not seem like an option, especially when we are already 
going to sell bonds to make pension payments.  This just uglier and uglier - 
I think I will quit writing.
