  • Seriously, over 10,000 people logged on to vote for a tax hike?!? I find that very hard to believe.

  • Keeping a lid on taxes is not just good for the taxpayer. It's a powerful way to force government to be more accountable, set priorities and spend smarter. Let me repeat that: more accountable, set priorities and spend smarter - that's what we need to be about.

  • Hey, Why don't all of us that are having financial issues just contact the government and say due to our budget short fall, we are having to reduce the amount we pay in taxes. Yeh right! That is the difference between government and the people. Government can take anything they want even if we don't have it to give. Can you imagine if we had that power over our employers?
