I know, he should have followed suit of the Republicans and reduced taxes
on the ultra wealthy and big corporations.

You do get to ultimately feel the sting of our decisions though.  Why were
there no VAG TDI's in the states for a while? (Audi Content)  Because they
were not *50* state emissions legal.   It only takes one weak leak to
break a chain.  So even if you are not in our fine state, and you enjoy
salt and snow, beware that crappy laws here will make for crappy
precedence for crappy laws in your state.  Or god forbid EPA/DOT
standards.
