Matt Blunt Kills American Dream

Legislators divided about merits of 2005 session:

House Minority Leader Jeff Harris, D-Columbia, said he was disappointed with the agenda pushed by Gov. Matt Blunt.

"My goal was to create more opportunities for Missourians and to make Missouri a better place," Harris said. "What I saw was a denial of opportunities and a series of broken promises that are detrimental to the taxpayers and voters in this state. It makes the American Dream out of reach and more difficult to achieve."

Perhaps Harris's American dream involves From each according to his ability to each according to his want, but mine doesn't.
