Indiana Senate. Dominated by Republicans. Taxpayer friendly. Not.
The Indiana Senate has turned down a proposal from Governor Daniels to have automatic tax refunds when the economy is in good shape.

The provision was taken out of the state budget yesterday, with senators calling it a waste of money.
Giving me back a pittance of my money would be a "waste"? The day after tax-filing deadline is probably not the right time to remind us that such attitudes are common in the General Assembly.
