How? I don't see what you are talking about.

I’d rather have that than an income tax.

You end up paying as much or more of your money for those things.

 

[IM2]

Only because the idiots (republicans) we so pig stupid they ran Kobach of all people.

the Dumbasses have supermajorities in both houses.

That and Derick Schmidt, a Brownback clone.

They just passed tax cuts that will, as usual, benefit the wealthiest folk.

And now they want to lure in two major league teams with incentives paid for by sales taxes, which will fall mostly on the less well off as we all know.

Red states suck.

Red states are not the only states which offer tax breaks to corporations to move in. They all do it. It's a nationwide scandal.

I don't know of any such deal which ended up being a net plus for taxpayers.

They cut taxes on the wealthy and raised them via a regressive sales tax on the less so.

We have no income tax here in Nevada, along with eight other states. People aren't dying in the streets.

Nevada makes money off casinos with their gaming tax, which is a tax on the stupid.

The Chiefs and Royals relocating to the Kansas side would be huge for KC Kansas. KC Kansas would then have all the major league sports in the metropolitan area. The economic impact would be huge.

What’s the sales tax in Ill, Washington, Cali and NY? Like where do they rank compared to the other 50 states?

You are not being honest.

Kansas had an across-the-board income tax cut for all Kansans, not just the wealthy.

In fact, they increased the child care tax credit, and eliminated the state tax on Social Security income. Both of those benefit the poor more than the wealthy.

They also reduced the property tax, and that benefits the middle class as well as the wealthy.

Neither Texas nor Florida have an income tax and they are two of the biggest states in the country.

Neither Texas nor Florida have an income tax and they are two of the biggest states in the country.

The government of Texas makes its money from oil and gas royalties, and from their sales tax.

Florida makes its money from their sales tax and from federal aid.

What’s the sales tax in Ill, Washington, Cali and NY? Like where do they rank compared to the other 50 states?

They are about the same as a lot of red states.

Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana all have higher sales taxes than Illinois, Washington, or New York.

Montana, New Hampshire, Delaware, and Oregon have no sales tax.

Poor people spend all their money. Wealthy folks don't.

It's a regressive tax.

Everyone spends money you idiot. Isn’t the food tax supposed to end soon in Kansas? That seems like a good idea.

Yes and no... It's supposed to happen but some republicans are trying to stop it.

Your democrat governor tried to stop it. The republicans had to out vote her veto. So fuck off with your bullshit.
