Daaaaaamn. Not even in an election year.
So taking your theory to its logical conclusion, you saying a federal government you deemed fiscally conservative enough should simply collect all the taxes that will be collected and disseminate the money to the states as it deem appropriate from a fiscal standpoint?
pwnt
well that’s pretty close to what we have now … what I propose is starting over. deciding what government should do. then deciding who should pay for what. in the meantime, when opportunities present themselves to cut taxes – or block tax increases – I will always support them.
If the increased power of raising local taxes was combined with a cut in state taxes, then this legislation might be justified.

Sure, why not? Worked great for Kansas, and they just lowered their income tax. Imagine what’ll happen if we completely eliminate ours over the next few years, with nothing to replace the revenue!
Janus is the two-faced god of the Romans, faces front and back. Since, like a teacher with eyes in the back of her head, he could face both directions: statues of his head were used to “guard” public buildings. Nikki, like Janus, can talk out of both sides. Her statement would be the envy of Janus. She seeks to be the master of having it both ways. Sheesh. Let us all worship South Carolina’s Chief Janus!
This is bovine sewage Gov Haley. You and Leatherman (POS-Florence) have shifted money around, cut money from counties, road and bridge projects, cut money to Univesities and spent every last dime in the General Fund only now having to resort to mandating counties to raise the sales tax TO PAY FOR THE OBAMACARE HEALTH INSURANCE INCREASES FOR 400,000 PUBLIC SERVANTS AND EMPLOYEES AND THEIR CHILDREN TO AGE 26!
Raise the state minimum wage to 13.00 dollars an hours so we can pay for this tax increase!
Change the salaried employee rules so we get our base plus half for all overtime.
Raise the corporate tax rate to 10-18% if you are giving them tax cuts on property taxes.
Take away home property taxes for private citizens.
Toal, Leatherman, Haley have ruined the budgets for everyone NOT on the state public employee payroll.
SC is screwed up at every level of trust, political office, and tax rates!
What nefarious legislative language is this that we must never mention what bill this actually is?
Please guys, make this bitch a one-termer. She does not deserve a second. No way. Now how.
Someday, republicans in SC will be educated. LOL.
So people DONt have the right to tax themselves.
Very “libertarian of you Fits!
Of course you’re no “libertarian as we all know,
But now as a REPUBLICAN ,well this column makes a lot of sense
Well, You elected her, now, pay the price !! Elect another pub, and pay even more. It’s your choice.

Thank you Nikki, Sandi and Tango love you even more. We want more taxes from our leader and can not say enough about your wonderful leadership, that has taken SC into a new forefront of productivity.
