Looks like "revenue" is collapsing which is putting Democrats into a panic. The consequences of a tax the rich and redistribute policy when reality hits.

Revenues crashing. Dems want open budget negotiations. Republicans say “nuts”

Meanwhile, they’re still opening envelopes at the state tax department, and it appears the state’s 100 wealthiest residents had an over forty-percent decline in taxable income last year; putting the current state budget, that ends in 60 days, $400 million in the red. Next year, the state may be well over $2 billion in the red.

Burn baby burn.  


Maybe it'll wake up SOME of the voters for the next election.

Judging by the turnout of trump and the voters in CT, as well as CT towns voting more for republican, I think we have a better shot on turning this state around, office wise. A swamp draining could be coming for us and it will be a good thing.

I can't wait to see what happens when the state runs out of money...

Don't fool yourselves. The state will never run out of money as long as you have $$$.  However we are at the point where those with the means and nothing holding them are leaving. Those who stay either don't have the means to leave, or the will to leave(because of jobs and family).


I had the opportunity to leave this year but decided to stay.

Sent in our last tax return ever to CT. DINK, paid for everyone else's for 17 years to enjoy "4th grade orchestra" and all those other essentials. Have fun replacing our income, suckers!

They really are stuck this time. Anything other than spending cuts will make the situation worse.

The fuckers that have destroyed Connecticut by handing out money to the ghetto rats, the corporations, etc. are literally traitors and should be treated as traitors.

We left CT for TX a year ago next week.

When filing 2016 taxes, I checked to see what our CT tax bill would have been if we had stayed all year. It would have been an extra $22k. Goodbye Connecticut

They could open Assault Weapon registration for 2 weeks a year with a $200 tax and make back a buttload of money.

Maybe this next tax hike that is inevitably coming, will finally convince the wife it's time we go.
