Taxes

When one party has control it can raise taxes whenever it wants to! Those tax increases are necessary to pay for all the new bureaucracies they have created.

Bureaucracy

When one party has control it can do whatever it wants to. It can, and will, create bureaucracies, to solve any crisis they believe exists.

Accountability

When one party has controlled this district (since 2006), the city of Minneapolis (since 1998), and Minnesota’s Fifth Congressional District (since 1962) they are no longer accountable to the people they represent!
