We Wuz Robbed!

$75 million returned to taxpayers so far, so says Governor Scheister. He also says the total rebates are expected to be around $100 million.

Trouble is, the surplus that caused the rebates was $1 billion. So they're telling us, "We took way more of your money than we should have. You get one tenth of it back."

I am owed, Scheister. You took too much and you didn't give it back.

You can say anything you want about Scheister except this: You cannot say he gave back everything extra that he took.

I suppose we should be thankful for the rebate on our tax overcharge...a rebate we will be taxed on. Makes my head hurt.

My cell phone service carrier over charges me $100 for the service they provide. Then out of their goodness of their hearts let me know I can apply for a 10% rebate on the amount they over charged me. But, I'll have to pay a service charge on my rebate. Makes sense to me...let's elect more democrates.
