Cocob on The Daily Kos sings the praises of Governor Dayton (and Governor Brown of California), concluding:
The reason Gov. Dayton and Gov. Brown were able to radically transform states economies into is simple arithmetic. Raising taxes on those who can afford to pay more will turn a deficit into a surplus.
Trickle -down economics doesn’t work California and Minnesota have proven it.
I don’t understand why people don’t get it. It’s math. Share this with Trump voters. Dayton is a real billionaire and could teach Trump a thing or two
Dayton doesn’t have Trump’s flair for language, however, so I suspect the teaching would be ineffective. Regardless, Cocob has a point about Minnesota’s recovery since Dayton’s election – one which I hope the local DFL trumpets when we start looking at electing a new Governor. I know St. Paul mayor Chris Coleman (DFL) is talking about running, but I have not heard his policies.
