If you are a Connecticut Taxpayer are better off in 2018 than you were in 2014? 2010? How about 1990?
Think about it. Are you paying more or less taxes? Have you had to change jobs since your former employer either closed or moved out of state? Has your local property taxes increased in that time frame? Have you wondered why the Connecticut state budget has grown to $21 billion dollars a year from $7 billion dollars a year in 1990 while population has dropped by 10%, an approximate 67% increase in spending? Have you wondered why Connecticut's short and long term debt and unfunded liabilities is now $60 to $80 billion dollars or four times the annual budget of the state? Have you wondered why a state judge can retire at 70% of their pay for the rest of their lives after only three years of service? In your current job are you guaranteed medical benefits for life when you retire? Do you have a pension at your job? If you do are you going to receive it by not contributing one penny to it in your work career? Also if you have a pension are you able to include overtime worked and mileage reimbursement expenses to its calculation like Connecticut state workers can in some cases? If you are a legal citizen of Connecticut are your children able to get financial aid attending a state community college or university like "Dreamer" students can? If you own a business in Connecticut has the amount of regulations on your business increased since 2014 or 2010? If you own a home in Connecticut and do not have a crumbling foundation do you want to pay a new $12 tax on your homeowners policy to supposedly correct this issue that you had no role in? Do you like paying one of the highest levels of taxes in the country while the state ranks near last in economic growth and business friendliness?
Again if you are a Connecticut Taxpayer are better off in 2018 than you were in 2014? 2010? How about 1990?
I know I am not and many of my family, friends and business owners are not.
This is the record that the Connecticut Democrat Party is running on in November. They have lied for years now to Connecticut Taxpayers. And Connecticut is in an economic mess. They have no solutions other than tax and spend to protect their elite ruling political class. The Connecticut Democrat Party owns the economy. And they have no solutions whatsoever.
Remember this when you vote in November.
