Of those 2,094,301, exactly 527 have opted to pay higher taxes.
That works out to approximately one-fortieth of 1 percent of all Massachusetts taxpayers. And yet, in the 2000 election, when the question of cutting the state income tax rate was on the ballot, more than 1 million residents voted not to cut their own taxes.
But given a chance to pay voluntarily, 99.9 of those no doubt very sincere pro-tax liberals have vanished, opting instead to enjoy the tax cut they ostensibly opposed
ah yes,
"don't tax me, don't thee, tax the guy "behind the tree"
i've always said to the leftists who say we are 'undertaxed'
'what's stopping you and your comrades from pay more?'
(did we really need a law for that?)
where i'm from we call that 'putting your money where your mouth is'
i think their 'money' has spoken loud and clear
(as opposed to the hot air that comes from their mouths <vbg>) |
