Hey Traveler.....believe what you want to believe... its a free country. washingtonpost.com GOP governor implements GOP economics, disaster ensues That’s what Sam Brownback did. In 2012 and 2013, Brownback and Republicans in the legislature cut income taxes twice, eliminated taxes on corporate profits that are “passed through” to individuals (making it the only state that does this), and since they’re Republicans, made changes to the tax code that had the effect of raising taxes on the poor (the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities has a good explanation of the tax changes and their effects). The governor has said his goal is to eventually eliminate the income tax completely. Do a little research on your own or at least provide some evidence to back up your opinions. Cheers.
