If we sit on our hands, 2005 will mean large tax increases and draconian cuts to services.

Local authorities do not have any money as they all suffering draconian cuts.

"Instead the administration's only answer is Draconian cuts and crippling taxes."

"In fact, many members on your side of the aisle agreed that the draconian cuts were not justified."
