The most revealing thing I’ve read today:

The Legislature was elected to create a spending plan for the state.

Untrue.

Legislatures are elected to govern.

Sometimes that involves spending money.

The evil assumption that spending money is government’s main purpose is one of the reasons why big government and its many accomplices must be resisted at every turn.
