“State run lotteries: think of them as tax breaks for the intelligent”
Evan Leibovitch
“There is a direct link between the federal tax cut of 2001 and state tax increases in 2003. When the federal government's mistakes force states to raise their taxes, it not only robs Peter to pay Paul, but it hurts hard-working families and it undermines our economy's strength.”
Senator John Kerry
“As a local taxpayer, I understand the continued concerns toward increased local and state taxes, but with the state assuming only 37 percent of public education costs when it should be closer to 50 percent, we have no place left to turn than to the local taxpayer to make up the difference,”
Larry Sullivan
“Taxes matter to businesses. How a state taxes business is just as important as how much a state taxes businesses.”
Scott Hodge
“For each dollar spent (on tourism marketing), you get $10 back in state taxes.”
Pete Meersman
“If they wanted to broaden it, then give a tax refund or lower the state taxes.”
Jack McKay
“One thing it highlights, again, is the wrong-headedness of the notion that higher state taxes and increased state spending somehow keep property taxes down.”
