SHOW YOUR WORK. Where are these numbers coming from, Tim? “AVERAGES” are intentionally misleading… if you make $500,000 and someone else makes $0, the AVERAGE is $250,000– they still make $0.
AVERAGES are how the wealthy use the poor as shields. TN gets more than we put in.
This new budget will cost the average Tennessee taxpayer $1700 a year and saddles those same taxpayers with $360 billion of debt. This is being done to “pull people out of poverty”.
