land of confusion
08 May 2006A Republican candidate, Jim Bryson, advocates a progressive tax policy change:
Bryson had another idea for the extra money — decreasing the sales tax on food.
“That’s going to help everybody in the state, particularly those that are the poorest,” Bryson said.
As Moe Syzlak would say:
“Whaaaaaa???”
Kudos to Bryson on this one.
Decreasing it from zero? He wants the state to pay people to buy food? …Hm, I guess that’s what food stamps are.
