That’s great to cut taxes on groceries by one half of one percent. But you would think that with support from the Tennessee Chamber for Commerce & Industry. They would also reduce restaurant taxes Tennessee really hits the vacation and convention visitor hard with their high taxes.
All us locals pay the same high sales taxes at restaurants and everywhere else. The only saving grace is we have no income tax.
They made sales taxes punitively high to try to get us yokels to budge on the income tax, but we didn’t blink. Unfortunately they forgot to reduce it once the issue was (theoretically) dead and buried. Now we have pots full of money left over that they need to spend or bury (balanced budget required) and twice a year they grant us peons a “tax free day”.... but only on what they think we should be buying.
