Other points of partisan contention will include taxes, with Republicans pushing to lower the state sales tax. Democrats, Naifeh said, have some reservations in a year when the budget is tight and the economy is stalling. "I'd like to see how to replace that with a stable source of income," he said.The last time Naifeh pushed replacing part of the sales tax with "a stable source of income," he pushed the state House to the brink of passing an income tax.

Bill, as one who played at least a small role in the IT fight, I can personally testify that Naifeh, et al., would rather slash their wrists than reduce the rate of increase in spending.(That does not translate to cuts in spending.) If they would just abide by the Copeland caps, there would be no problem. The vast majority of dems, and a handful of Rinos share complete blame for any "shortfall". I don't think even those parasites are dumb enough to propose an income tax, but eveything else is on the table. Posted by: Raymond Baker at January 7, 2008 1:20 PMPost a comment
