I wish Katrina would be more honest about her bill. The rest of the legislature would never cut the spending necessary to pay for this tax cut, and what spending they would cut wouldn’t come from what benefits them. It would be an inevitability to taxes to go up elsewhere.

When the inevitable tax increase would come, she would be able to take no responsibility for it, so I guess that’s all that matters to her.

If Katrina is going by Texas or Florida as a role model, she needs to remember Texas and Florida’s economies are strong for much bigger reasons than whether or not they assess state income tax. When our tourism industry is as booming as Florida’s, or when we start being a major oil state, let me know.

@Karl Smirx

You probably said the same thing about the Confederacy’s flag on the statehouse. A bi-partisan vote took the flag down. A bi-partisan vote can ease taxation in South Carolina. As a small business owner facing the Obamacare tax, I can not only see Sen Katrina’s bill working for SC’s businesses, I see SC Senator Katrina’s working for all of South Carolinia, not the other way around.

Don’t be such a sour puss, and in your vernacular, Merry Holiday’s. To everyone else, Merry Christmas!!! See you next year. Going on vacation. Happy New Year!!!

this is EXACTLY like taking the flag down off the statehouse. So long as we have a bipartisan coalition, erasing half of the state’s budget along with the matching funding that comes with it will have no negative real world implications so long as we have a bipartisan coalition voting for it.

Shealy wants state government to get smaller. Think she will suggest reducing the budget at DHEC by eliminating her sister’s job?

Is every politician from Lexington nuts? Or does it just appear that way.

It’s not the Lexington politicians we need to worry about.
There are only a handful of them.
It’s the thousands of Lexington voters running around loose that should give us pause.

The crazies are both Lexington voters and their politicians.

Shealy can be now be added the Lexington crazy politician list that includes Jake Knotts and Curtis Loftis.

Must be something in the water in Lexington……………….

If you are not going to replace the revenue you must say what you propose to cut. Saying cut taxes is only 1/2 of a plan. If you truly believe in this bill tell us what you will cut in spending. Otherwise you are just another lying Republican.

Lol, she said “my husband’s business has had to go without because he hasnt made a profit in 2 years, and now state government will have to also” This is so awesome how her mind works – so perhaps we should be thankful he husband’s business hasn’t been going gangbusters bringing in money hand over fist for the past two years – or apparently she’d be filling a bill to triple the state income tax? What an amazing idiot.

Maybe you should learn to read – that isn’t what the article said at all. Guess you went to SC public schools!

Einstein – that’s a quote by Senator Shealy from the State paper at a Press conference she had about the bill. There are other news sources than FITS – sorry private school taught u so little? U and Katrina’s brain power together could likely toast a piece of bread – lightly.

Mr. Your Killing Me – you stupidity is so amazing and unabashed, I’m actually pretty damned impressed by you – it must be very easy for u to win debates since the dissenters are OBVIOUSLY wrong since they have to stick to your opinion and facts and see if they can prove you wrong.

Wow, just wow, your entire world view is limited to what FITS says. I’m going to get you a brain for Christmas – please let me know your mailing addressed

“You are killing” got 100% ‘p-owned’ as FITS would say and didn’t respond back?
But what was there really to say – he/she went off half cocked, with no clue as to what he/she was talking about. “Look ma’ no brains.” Bwahahahaha
