@JJ why don’t we just get rid of the tax breaks for the rich? That would help bring down the national debt without making regular people like us pay more for things. And we should enjoy these minor tax breaks for as long as we can because we may be taking state taxes out someday.
Oops, thats nation wide 2-3% tax
What a loss income to the state!
Pay the piper…..
I am in favor of a 2-3% additional sales tax on everthing,EVERYTHING TO PAY THE NATIONAL DEBT DOWN.
