$300 million. Eh, we were down over a billion going into our legislative session. Are there any cuts left to make? If not, I don't see how you can't raise taxes a little bit.

I think the $300 million is just one year. The long term number is more grim.
I mean, there's always more they could cut, but there's not enough to cut to make up the shortfall without crippling vital government services. The ironic thing is there are a couple of studies that indicate we wouldn't have such a shortfall had we expanded Medicaid and set up our own exchange under Obamacare. Not sure how accurate those studies are though.
