NH like just about every other state, cannot do deficits. They cannot spend 4 dollars for every dollar of taxes, they can spend approximately one dollar for every dollar of taxes.
Meanwhile, I know this will come as a shock, but it actually costs money to run a government and provide the infrastructure and services that a government provides.

The $4 comment was somewhat tongue in cheek. It is a shock it costs money to run the govt. I appreciate the lesson. The one of the goals of govt should be to operate as efficiently as possible to not waste the taxpayers money. If it was capable of doing that quite possibly people might feel like they are getting a value for their hard earned money.
