That was my thought, why not return it to the taxpayers.
“That was my thought, why not return it to the taxpayers.”
So, when the economy goes sour and revenues fall, you make up the shortfall by increasing taxes? I’d rather have a stable and predictable tax structure with a nominal surplus to cushion against revenue loss. This is what a good business does. Don’t we normally want our government run on the basis of sound business practices?
If the surplus continues to grow, lower the rates. But don’t start cutting checks to the taxpayers, and then ask them to pony up in lean times.
that’s just crazy talk!
Performance pay? for what? who’s “the competition” to The State?
