"....And the coming referendum efforts will have a high probability of success...."

 baloney.. any referendum will die on the vine when people realize we are back on an even keel with enough revenue to care for our young and needed infrastructure, and the knowledge education and public safety will be fully funded, and the added bonus that dividends can grow again possibly, and we WON`T be wasting our savings anymore subsidizing your patrons in the Conoco caucus Helgason.  Dream on.
