based on the incumbent premier's happy happy joy joy giveaway of taxpayer money due to an election in a few weeks:
"What do you want, a tax and spend Liberal or a borrow and spend Conservative?"
The corollary: is it better to pay your way now or pass it on to your kids? What kind of person do you want to be?
The Conservative party in Ontario is very likely to get tossed out in the next election, and not a moment too soon.
In Alabama, apparently they've decided to hand it on to their kids. My take on that one is that the governer should start closing schools and hospitals, and prioritize it based on the percentage of the district that voted agains the tax raise he wanted to make.
