"This isn't the budget any of us would have written, given the choice," House Ways and Means Chairman Ross Hunter said in a prepared statement. "But our job is to make the most responsible decisions we can in these tough times. I think we do that in this budget. It is thoughtful and sustainable."
Dear Ross;
You had a choice! And you made it.
Your job is to make responsible decisions. And you didn't.
