From the Fox Forum:
Early in my career, a friend warned me about entering battle alongside a colleague, describing him as a “chocolate soldier.” “Chocolate soldiers say all the right things and look formidable entering the battlefield,” he explained. “Problem is that they melt in the heat.” As we confront the nation’s largest budget deficit in Arizona, I understand what he meant.
Today, as we find ourselves in the worst economic downturn in state history, people are worried. I’m worried too. We’re faced with the reality that government has created a dependent class of people.
