This story is pure BS. I am a life long Republican but I will be voting against every single R that I see on the next election. The idea of taxing the poorest members of our society to save some taxes on those who are the best suited to pay it is disgusting. Kevin Meyer is my senator and He will never see another vote from me. I am furious and I want so badly to use descriptive expletives that would surely be censored on this forum. We need a sliding income tax scale that goes up and down with the income we receive from oil and gas revenue. Destroying the economy of the state by taking funds away from those who will spend it on necessities to preserve the tax free status of the rich bureaucrats in Juneau is not the answer. Does anybody have an effigy of Kevin Meyers? Lets burn it along with the rest of greedy bums in Juneau. You too Nathaniel, your soft sell for the PFD raid is just as big of a problem.
