[pknopp]

So do you approve as long as it's been taxing a long time? They want it all...

No.

The post i posted is a tax coming into the city to work. Its all the same but you short circuit when faced with realities.

Read your post. The headline says INCOME. Apparently, you're not intelligent enough to discern the difference.

It matters little how it's applied.

Many places have long had a tax like this. Blue towns, red towns, purple towns.

Link(s) for the facts....

Currently, head taxes are not widely implemented in the United States, with most states and cities moving away from such taxes due to their unpopularity and legal challenges. However, some local jurisdictions may still have variations of head taxes or similar fees, but they are not a common practice in blue, red, or purple states.
Head taxes, also known as poll taxes, are fees levied on individuals, typically as a requirement for voting or accessing certain services. Their implementation varies significantly across states and cities, particularly in blue, red, and purple areas.
Indeed.
Poll taxes created by Democrats were declared unconstitutional with the ratification of the Twenty-fourth Amendment on January 23, 1964,
DSA Marxists want to recreate the "Poll Tax" in their areas of control.

Typical Democrat pontificating about how they are focusing on jobs and yet they pursue policy that chases jobs away. Democrats that arrogant or that stupid?

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson proposes $21 per employee corporate “head tax”

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson proposed a $21-per-employee monthly tax on large companies to help fill a nearly $1.2 billion shortfall. Business leaders and even a former mayor say the “head tax” could kill job creation and new investment.

The proposed $21 per employee corporate "head tax" by Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is intended to generate revenue for city programs, but critics argue it could discourage job creation and investment, likening it to a "poll tax" due to its fixed cost per employee. This tax targets large companies with over 100 employees and aims to address a significant budget shortfall.

Has anyone questioned why there is a 'significant budget shortfall'? Couldn't be Johnson and the city government's poor management could it?
