KS Governor vetoes income tax cut/sales tax increase

[harmonica]

One of the ways to lower the debt and deficit (GOP only worry about that when they are out of power) is to cut DOD and repurpose it as a fast strike and reprisal force.

we need to cut SPENDING--you can't keep raising taxes--this is very SIMPLE common sense--which you don't get

 

[StormAl]

Cut taxes on the middle, working, and poorer classes, particularly those that elapsed this year.

Raise taxes on Big Business and the wealthy, and close loopholes on Big Business.

If they move overseas, tax their overseas income as US income.

...the poor don't pay taxes--how will you cut that????!!!!!!!!! hahahahah
...the wealthy already pay MORE than their fair share
...Businesses will just raise prices!! DUH
...if you keep raising taxes, that will destroy the country

You poor dupe. The wealthy certainly do not pay their fair share, nor do Big Business. Let BB raise prices, because the increased cost will bless than the tax cost; rich people buy far more than the average citizen.

FDR's tax rates did not kill the country. Quit being hysterical.

....I've got news for you--this is not 1930 anymore..the US is not the world manufacturing King anymore

I have news for you. You do not understand economics. Our economy is booming while manufacturing is a very minor impact on it.

The Kansas legislature overrides Kelly's veto of the Republican income-tax-cut/sales-tax-increase plan, fails to override Kelly's veto of the Republican transgender athlete ban. It's important to appeal to the base and take stands in the culture war and all the rest, of course, but when the moment comes for truly pushing votes, the state Republican party's real priorities have always been clear.

A sales tax, imo, is always a tax on the poor.

federal taxes need to be cut..

Federal taxes on certain people are at all time lows.

That's ceiling the country's tax base.

 

[Crepitus]

the wealthy already pay MORE than their fair share

Bullshit. The wealthy folks pay less as a percentage of their income.

Also, the top ten percent of earners in the country have 90% of the wealth. They should pay 90% of the taxes. Instead they pay less than 40%>

Yea, until China decides to not give us the critical goods and technology they make for us. They own 90% of rare earth elements because they are one of the few that mine for it. The make a majority of our technology we depend on and nearly all of the medical equipment and pharmaceuticals we use. But hey, nothing bad could possibly happen because of all that, right? We can trust Communists.

Yes, cut the DOD.

Cut all spending across the board, bring the troops all home and quit being the world police. Cut 25% across the board.

The only reason the economy seems to be doing well is we have approved trillions in spending over the last year, this cannot continue and when it ends, we will implode. Simply taxing the rich will not fix this, this is just another way the politicians use the rich to get what they want in spending.

Not sure when we will pay for all this however, it isn't going to be pretty.

When my city voted down a property tax increase everyone's property assessments magically went up 10-15%. Never underestimate an other people's money addict's will to find a way.

What do you do if they move their HQ overseas too?

harmonica and others here clearly do not understand taxation and economic theory.

We can easily tax the rich and Big Business so they pay a fair share.

The savings for the middle class will be spent in and boost the economy even more. Anyone mentioning Hayek or Mises can be ignored.

How has that been working out for NYC, Connecticut and New Jersey when they
tried to easily tax those naughty hedge fund guys?

Simply let them know if they flee the state, their out of state income will be taxed at the same rates as NY.

So Toddster and Amart do not understand the Constitution.
