[QUOTE="Fred's Myth, post: 5670126, member: 55587"] The problem with ANY new tax is that the revenue streams from existing taxes aren't eliminated, or are resurrected at the drop of a hat. Example: Here in Texas, the State Legislature has increased the STATE Homestead Exemption from $40K to $100K. Sounds wonderful. But that doesn't address the largest property tax, the School District. It doesn't address the multitude other taxing entities such as Hospital, Junior College, Emergency Services, etc. It doesn't address what the Appraisal Boards can appraise your property for. It doesn't address the TAX RATE that can be assessed against that appraisal. In other words, it was a sleight of hand that doesn't accomplish anything permanent. As long as liberals keep finding ways to spend tax money in spurious ways, taxes will continue to increase and multiply. [/QUOTE]
