		<description>Bill527,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you don&#039;t fit the profile, you should contact your state senator and state rep. Tell them they better not vote to raise your taxes, otherwise they just might. New Mexicans who earn $295K or more, are for sure telling their lawmakers not to roll back the tax cuts handed-out to them in 2003 [which got us into this mess]. The super-rich and out-of-state corporations dominate Gov&#039;s Task Force, and are using that access to prevent lawmakers from doing what Research and Polling discovered: 43% of registered voters are less likely to vote for lawmaker who cut education spending in Jan 2010, instead of rolling back tax cuts for the super-rich, and closing tax loopholes for out-of-state corporations. See my blog on this issue:  &lt;a href=&quot;http://dr56279wasright.blogspot.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://dr56279wasright.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>For what it might be worth I don&#039;t fit the profile since my &#039;09 income will be less then 4% of that figure but fully expect that when the curtain comes down after the next legislative farce it won&#039;t be the fat cats or out of state corporations who end up paying more taxes.</description>

		<description>If they would first, let the &quot;double dippers&quot; go, and then proceed to let some of the duplicate staff that were &quot;apointee&quot; positions go, that alone would save ALOT of money, but of course that won&#039;t happen, not here in New Mexico. It&#039;ll probably be business as usual, with the employees who only have one source of income and who truly need that one job who will get furloughed and/or axed. Oops !! I mean laid off ! Oops no,  I mean &quot;A leave&quot;</description>

		<description>Bill527 ---- if you earn $295K or more a year, it&#039;s going to come out of your hide, as it should. If you earn $295K or more a year, you&#039;ve been getting a tax cut of at least $13K a year since 2004. If you got that, what have you done with the money? Certainly didn&#039;t use it to create more jobs as promised. 31,000 New Mexicans who had jobs this time last year, don&#039;t have jobs now. If you&#039;re a stockholder in Walmart, Target, Lowe&#039;s, Home Depot, Starbucks or other out-of-state corporations, then this will come out of your hide, too. Cause, those corporations are allowed by lawmakers to NOT pay a fair share of taxes on profits earned when we buy their stuff. So, there. If you fit the profile, get ready to pay more taxes, you&#039;re 0.01 percent of the population which has been getting a free ride. It&#039;s over. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://dr56279wasright.blogspot.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://dr56279wasright.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;</description>
