Message: [QUOTE="SubbaBub, post: 2679312, member: 523"] It is incredibly hard if not impossible for a tax levying entity to void a contract like this. It's rare at the municipal level and only possible because you can actually calculate the property tax base if there is no local sales or income tax. A State would have to carry a level of debt way larger than where CT is right now. As it stands. CT was able to balance its budget without anything more than annual spending cuts. No honest judge would allow it. If this bothers people then worry about more than $50 tax adjustments when long term commitments aren't being met. It's like people who spend their rent money to go clubbing. Same irresponsibility. Those hoping for the state to skip out on the bill for 50 years of public services are going to be disappointed.
