1/ So I was strolling through #copolitics yesterday, and I noted with amusement a new lefty troll account: Rich Guys Against Proposition 118. @guys_118 "Hmmm", I wondered, "what stupidity is this?" #NoOn118 2/ I decided to look at their website at notnowco.org. It seems to hate on the business groups that have donated money to defeat Proposition #118 for paid family and medical leave. Of course, I've opposed it for years. #copolitics #NoOn118

In this day and age in America, we are living at the highest pinnacle of human flourishing yet achieved on Planet Earth. Even the poor are better off today than even 50 years ago. #copolitics #ShiningCityOnAHill This is made possible by three things. I think of it as the three pillars of human flourishing. They are:
1) Capitalism
2) Limited, constitutional government
3) Fossil Fuels

I see we're talking about Transportation, one of the (arguably) legitimate functions of government. Here's a few fun facts about Transportation in the 27 years since #TABOR was passed. #copolitics #coleg Since FY 1993-94 through FY 2019-20, Transportation appropriations have averaged 6.7% of the total appropriations for each year. The high was 11.4% in FY 2000-01. The low was 5.1% in FY 2009-10 #copolitics #coleg #TABOR

Whoever is running this account is clearly no taxpayer advocate, is not part of any "alliance", and is clearly hostile to #TABOR. They also either don't understand taxation or are not above spreading misinformation. #copolitics #coleg Note that they call for a "progressive (tiered) income tax" to "fix Colorado's outrageous tax code". The graphic purports to show that the bottom 20% pays more income taxes by implication. #copolitics #coleg #TABOR

A look at Colorado state budgets FY 1993-94 to FY 2019-20. Shocking growth, even with #TABOR in place. toadvancefreedom.com/why-budgets-ma… #copolitics #coleg #TuesdayThoughts Note the 6.5% for Transportation in the FY 2019-20 budget. That is consistent with the average appropriations of 6.7% since the year after TABOR was passed. Don't let them lie to you and say TABOR is at fault. #copolitics #coleg #leftylies

I'm sad this morning for the family of the young person who died, the families and others who were wounded and the entire community who was traumatized by yesterday's #StemShooting.
Another horrific, senseless act of violence. #copolitics #coleg My fellow Americans who reside on the "left" side of the spectrum believe that designating schools as "gun free zones" and enacting ever more restrictive legislation on firearms will make our public spaces safer. Kudos to them for their good intentions. #copolitics #StemShooting
