On promises not kept...

As you may remember:

Despite earlier pledges of fiscal restraint, DFLers in the Legislature are proposing increases in the income tax, gasoline tax, sales tax, liquor tax and license tab fees, along with new levies on lead paint, gravel, deeds and cosmetic surgery.

It's unlikely that all of them will get passed. If that happens, the total would approach $3 billion.

As a public service, the Ice Palace has taken it upon itself to come up with the "Pinocchio-Crat-O'Meter", which will be updated periodically to reflect new MN DFL spending du jour....
