Again, just trying to get to an apples-to-apples understanding.
Sincere replies only.
Speaking of apples to apples. Olson quotes Candidate McLaughlin with
the following:
"He compared the direction he would go to fixing a leaky roof on a
house instead of doubling a mortgage payment, which he said Rybak has
done."
I understand he is saying utilization of resources but do we have a
leaky roof? It seems to me the apples to apples comparison is paying
down the debt or passing the payments (and more interest) on to the
next group of taxpayers in line.
