If Gov Heineman get's this passed I will leave Iowa NEVER to return. I am getting a BELLYFUL of the LIBERAL HACK State.

I never understood Iowa, and why it is blue. Can you shed some light here? Is it farm subsidies?

[QualityMan]

Um, this is Nebraska........??

I met a farmer while passing through Iowa this summer that told me it was a conservative state. Was he just reminiscing? BEAUTIFUL state - the air smelled so fresh and clean.

Wait for the details. If he means eliminating the tax exemption for food, raising the gasoline tax or taxes on any other essential to daily life items, then the tax climate might be worse rather than better.

I would like for the state income tax to go away, but not to merely be replaced with more of a burden spread out among the myriad of things they think they can tax.

I moved from Iowa to Nebraska 20-some years ago.

One of the better decisions I made.

Just try to stay away from Omaha and Lincoln.

Hopefully a concerted effort by many governors, as Bobby Jindal is offering up the same thing.

[Wuli]

so Heineman and Jindahl are competing this week on the same idea, and to influence not only their own states but the 2016 potus campaugn as well??

**The governor’s two-year state budget plan calls for a 4.9 percent increase in spending.**

This is what passes for a “conservative Republican” nowadays?

We are doomed.
