States are in trouble because there is no recovery. Sadly, many are begging the federal gov for money. However, it too faces falling revenues. For example in Nevada, taxable sales dropped 8.1% in Jan compared with the same period a year ago, marking for us 15th straight month of decline. There is a loss in taxable income. OK so the state must raise taxes to generate more revenue. Expect things to get worse.
