Budget Breakdown breaks down the budget at the Super Bowl – with the help of some 10-year-olds
“We’re Cooked!”
A trio of lovable 10-year-olds wonder how the state can face a $10 billion -$12 billion shortfall in the next four years when it expects to collect an additional $10 billion in revenue.1

The kids are pretty sure they’ve heard about how the cost of things have been growing over the years – but not nearly as much as the growth of state government.1
