They raised taxes on your home… Pay more… What for? By Brian Schweitzer  Governor of Montana 2005-2013  Less government and lower taxes!!  You hear that political slogan from Republican candidates early and often while they are campaigning.  Then comes political reality.

Apparently, looking at the data, if you turn your previously red state blue, your crime rate goes down by 39% And the reverse is true. Which explains why Billings, Kalispell and Great Falls are enjoying record crime waves. We don’t need more prisons. Just less Republicans.

In Montana a family needs to make $70,000 / year to make a decent living. Montana wages are much too low to survive here for many workers. Low wages are why our kids leave our state. Low wages are why there aren’t enough workers to provide services. Low wages - not taxes.
