Minnesota shutdown
Here in Minnesota, we find ourselves 12 days into a state government shutdown. To add insult to injury, some of us might find our favorite watering holes running dry.

This problem won't last long... the state won't be able to do without the tax revenue.

During the journey we commonly forget its goal. Almost every profession is chosen as a means to an end but continued as an end in itself. Forgetting our objectives is the most frequent act of stupidity.

Re: Minnesota shutdown
Not quite. He added conditions. Tough to say whether the MN GOP will take the deal.

Re: Minnesota shutdown
He did blink, he'll make the deal. (give him the bonds and 1/2 the social issues and be done)

Re: Minnesota shutdown
I doubt the GOP will go for that because the dropping of those social policy issues will make it impossible to address the structural problems Minnesota faces. That, and the bond will only make this same argument pop up in another couple years.

Re: Minnesota shutdown
Well then we'll have to wait and see, won't we?
Dayton needs the government open a lot more than the GOP does and he made that point today.
