[QUOTE="Channahon, post: 498460, member: 7666"] Here in the State of lllinois, where corrupt and inept politicians are a legacy, the new governor proposed raising the [B][U]state income tax 50% from 3% to 4.5%. [/U][/B] How's that for a kick in the pants? In today's economy, no less, just goes to show you, they have no regard for the citizens of the state. They screw up the budget, mismanage projects, and hire their relatives.You don't hear about any layoffs or concesssions for goverment workers, just the hard working private industry. They just keep raising taxes, businesses suffer, the revenues aren't as expected, so they have to find something else to tax. And plan on a 16 to 23 cent gasoline tax hike as well. I sent the governor an email, and wrote letters to all congressmen and state representatives, asking them not to support this increase. And then I sent everyone I know in the State of Illinois, a link to a website, so they can look up their own legislators, so they can do the same if they want. And they are all Democrats to boot.
