The ink isn't dry on Idaho's $108 million surplus and already you can hear a familiar chant: Time for a tax cut. "I think it provides an opportunity for us to look at cutting taxes," House Assistant Majority Leader Brent Crane, R-Nampa, told "Idaho Reports" host Melissa Davlin. "It's the taxpayers' money. We've got too much of it. We need to return it back to them." Idaho does not have too much of the taxpayers' money. What it has is too many sloganeering politicians/Marty Trillhaase, Lewiston Tribune. More here.

Question: Are there better ways to use Idaho's $108M surplus than tax cuts?
