WE are set up for the main flaw in the kicker:  If the economy recovers better than we expect in the next biennium, we will have a kicker which will not allow the state to save immediately following a period when budgets could not fund basic services.  We need to save.

I disagree that people always know better how to spend the money.  Look at the people susceptible to scams and buying junk which no one needs.

My last kicker went to our school's educational trust and to several other charities.
