Minnesota makes a deal, and it'll end the state government shutdown. Exactly how they did that is, well, a little sleight-of-hand: instead of raising taxes, they'll transfer money from schools in a "loan" and sell tobacco bonds, which means that they really didn't fix things, they just shoved the shells around a little and called it magic. And will borrow MORE money. So the state's back in business. Sort of. And they'll be back in the same situation, only a little worse, next year. (Minneapolis Star-Tribune)
