State and local government borrowing

Hi,
I am new here.

Is there a fundamental reason why state and local governments need to borrow from the credit markets?

They can always tax, right?

Alternately, can state and local government borrowing be viewed as taxing future citizens/residents/townspeople ?

Thanks,


Bejoy
