DING DING DING we have a winner!

That could be the GOP mantra except that they would be lynched.

Fishy

Isn't it just as funny that when we talk about federal tax breaks and the such that someone always brings up that the poor pay a higher % of their earnings in sales tax? Seeing how the sales tax is a state tax vice federal and actually means nothing in the topic at hand?

If you are so poor that the majority of your money is spent on food(not fast food) then your tax burden would be pretty low.

There can be no argument, however, that sales tax is a disproportionate tax.....and that is bad.
Income tax at the state level is the way to go......but the problem, at least with this State is that everyone fears that if we had a State income tax, the sales tax wouldn't be dropped out of the picture. And considering the past, I'd say that the fear is legitimate.
