I swoon at the idea of ridding ourselves of the IRS and would celebrate the day of it ever happened.

Now if I did not have more than enough reasons to vote for Fred Thompson. He has added yet another reason. A Flat Tax, abolishment of the death tax and the Alternative Minimum Tax and a cut in the corporate income tax rate to 27% from 35%. Now granted it falls short of getting rid of the IRS, but it does give a choice between the the old system and a better system. It is also a good start to eventually dumping the whole mess.

No other candidate has put forth more conservative policies than Fred Thompson and that says a lot about who the true conservative is, in this race.

Warren Buffet thinks he should pay more taxes. I say go right ahead, but don’t go wishing your desires to give the government more money to waist on the rest of us. Some of us think the government already has too much money.

Excellent PSA and a wonderful illustration as to how ridiculous this whole expansion of SCHIP really is.

This past Friday was the first Friday that the Bart Peterson Tax Increase for Emergency Services for areas that don’t have the tax base to support it, so increase the tax on everyone in Marion County to pay for it, because Bart Peterson is a democrat and does not know how to cut spending, went into effect. I feel quite safe and as far as I am concerned not in need of this extra service. But I certainly noticed a significant portion of my paycheck missing because of this increase.

As long as a democrat is Mayor I am sure I will never see that portion of my pay check again. That is why it is so important that we elect Greg Ballard as Mayor this November 6th and get Bart Peterson out of office.

Oh in the event that you came across this post for whatever reason, I am pissed because Bart Peterson raised the Marion County Tax from 1% to 1.65% and I want him out of office. Thanks for stopping by. Come back anytime.

I am all for consumer based taxes. If I have to pay a higher Sales Tax to pay lower Property Taxes, let’s do it!

It is more fair and shares the burden of taxes more equitably throughout the populist.

GOP leaders sign on to new tax plan

Senate President Pro Tempore David Long, R-Ft. Wayne, and House Minority Leader Brian Bosma, R-Indianapolis, both emphatically endorsed Gov. Mitch Daniels property-tax reform plan today.

In a Statehouse news conference, the Republican leaders called Daniels’ proposal the most important property-tax reform since the 1970s. Both Long and Bosma also announced they would seek to jump-start the legislative process required to pass the governor’s plan, which would permanently cap property taxes through a constitutional amendment.

Now let’s hope that they can actually get something done. Faster the better.
