But Borst pretty much voted down the line with Burton on those same hot-button issues, even if he wasn't vocal about it. Borst took a wrap because he occasionally supported tax increases as a leader on the budget when both parties reached agreement, although he was by no means a tax and spend liberal. If you look at the tax burden of Hoosiers relative to the other states, it falls on the low side. Borst has to get part of the credit for that given the nearly 3 decades he called the shots on the state budget.Gary R.
