ReplyDeleteThe E-Tax is Toast.
ReplyDeleteand so are the services it provides
ReplyDeleteCan anyone verify if Jeff roe is involved?
ReplyDeleteif true looks like Roe is on a mission to get back for not getting the job to support the e-tax and is going to get revenge by making kc broke. glad he cares that much about the city to help cut police, fire, trash and snow removal services. shesh.
ReplyDeleteservices?
ReplyDeleteyou mean taking my tax money so city officials can wine and dine????
NO Thanks !!!!
easy Vanessa
ReplyDeleteNine states do not have an income tax today, and those nine combined have outpaced the rest of the country in economic and population growth for the last decade.
ReplyDeletewine and dine? If police want to have a nice dinner with some of my money...I'll gladly let them every now and then. Its the least I can do since they get paid crap anyways for taking bullets and trying to protect the city.
ReplyDeleteThe transission is the hard part. Getting from here to there.
ReplyDelete1:34
ReplyDeleteBut however do they possibly pay for all those services?!?!? Oh, that's right, economic prosperity. KC people don't understand that. If you have economic prosperity, only the big businesses and corporations win, in their world. Please, 1:34, enlighten us as to how many small businesses are in those nine states? Or are they completely overrun with greedy big business?

ReplyDeleteCompletely overrun with greedy big business?
Sounds more like they're completely overrun with economic and population growth.
All you "e-tax is toast" whiners have your d-bag iPhones with a 913 number. Nice try, but even KC is smart enough to keep taxing you people. They might not be the smartest bunch, but they're not as dumb as you think. Nice try JoCo fools.

ReplyDeleteYou sound angry because your city is not completely overrun with economic and population growth.
Nobody is angry. I'm not the crybaby whining about paying 1% like you d-bags.
ReplyDeleteWhy is it that some of the states with the biggest fiscal problems have the highest individual state income tax rates, such as New York and California, while some of the states with the least fiscal problems have no state income tax at all? High-tax advocates will argue that the high-tax states provide much more and better state services, but the empirical evidence does not support the assertion. On average, schools, health and safety, roads, etc. are no better in states with income taxes than those without income taxes. More importantly, the evidence is very strong that people are moving from high-tax states to lower-tax-rate states — the migration from California to Texas and from New York to Florida being prime examples. (Next year, the combined federal, state and local income tax rate for a citizen of New York City will be well over 50 percent, as contrasted with approximately 38 percent for citizens of Texas and Florida.) If the citizens of California and New York really thought they were getting their money's worth for all of the extra state taxation, they would not be moving to low-tax states.
ReplyDeleteRoe had to wait announce until the Mayoral Primary because of Funkhouser. He has been working on it for a while and Annie Presley was fundraising for the anti tax while raising money for her own campaign.
ReplyDeleteStates WITHOUT Income Tax Saw Greatest Growth in Ten Year Census. The first of the 2010 Census numbers were released yesterday, and they tell a particularly interesting story of population distribution in these United States.
ReplyDeleteAs Michael Barone at the Washington Examiner points out…
“Seven of the nine states that do not levy an income tax grew faster than the national average. The other two, South Dakota and New Hampshire, had the fastest growth in their region.

ReplyDelete"Nobody is angry. I'm not the crybaby whining about paying 1% like you d-bags."
You're not angry? I must have taken that whining d-bag comment the wrong way.
The E-Tax is dead! Get ready to pay for your own services just the same as the rest of the U.S. cities do. Or, sit back and watch as your own city declines while the crooked polititions spend all the E-Tax money on everything short of city services.

ReplyDeletePeople in JoCo are smarter than people in JaCo. It's simple. JaCo residents keep voting for the same stupid crooks who steal...JoCo keep voting for initiatives that take advantage of stupid fucking voters in Missouri. Duh.
ReplyDeleteRachel-sorry, but it just looks boring over at kctaxreform.com right now. Nodody calling me a d-bag. And, I'd just feel as if Jeff Roe were looking at me while I typed. Bleh!! But I still think the E-Tax is dead!!
ReplyDeleteNot sure I understand why people support ever higher taxes. Do you really think that if there isn't the 1% earnings tax that the City can't provide services? That's stupid...but maybe you're stupid. I don't live in KC,MO but have a company in KC,MO and trust me when I tell you that everyone I offer a job to tells me how much they hate that earnings tax. All you tax and spend libs should take an econ course so you'll understand why your point of view is killing this country. Seriously. Keep voting to tax the "rich" and pretty soon we'll all be gone. Then who will subsidize your pot and wii addiction?

ReplyDeleteYah I'm sure that EVERYONE you offer a job to says, "Well, ehhhhhh I would rather be unemployed than pay a 1% Earnings Tax"
ReplyDeleteI was undecided until learning of Freddie Fat Fuck Roe's position. If that slob is against it, it must be a good deal for KC.
ReplyDeletePlease the only no e-tax means is less money for the Guadalupe center and the rest of the non profits that hang off the tax payer tit. E-tax good bye and good riddance!
ReplyDeleteWow. You got me. Probably not everyone but certainly most. Not sure that was really a substantive response to the issue, but maybe you know you're on the losing end of a real discussion.
ReplyDeleteAs costs rise unnaturally (1% earnings tax in this case), rational people seek out alternatives. You may not like it, but it's true. The fact of the matter is that government needs to scale back and make it easier for the entrepreneurs, not harder.
All the anti E-tax folks are from JOCO. Retired folks and low income folks pay little, or no E-tax. Be prepared to pay for trash service if it fails. Get out and vote. JOCO will not get to vote.

ReplyDeleteYou said: "Be prepared to pay for trash service if it fails."
Is this a joke?
Do you really consider trash service to be free? Just because you don't directly pay for it?
There is no such thing as free trash service or a free lunch.
Direct and transparent payments for trash service will lower transaction and overall costs.
The e-tax sucks.
Please the only no e-tax means is less money for the Guadalupe center and the rest of the non profits that hang off the tax payer tit. E-tax good bye and good riddance!
ReplyDeleteDead on.....George "the Great One" Guestello has made a living off the Kansas City taxpayer for way too long. Citizens of Lawrence knew something when they chose not to even interview him for their Chamber position. Hell a wino stumbling down Mass Ave could get a interview. They knew something that Union Station and American Royal didn't. If George "the Great One" Guestello supports it....the Chamber supports it......it's got smelly dog do-do all over it and the taxpayer is going to get screwed. E-Tax is dead. Enough of the rip-off for the benifit of big business (Chamber of Commerce) and the leaches like Guadalope Center and Union Station. No more. E-Tax goes down !
that last post was mine.....
ReplyDeleteTime of KC's E-xtortion Tax to go!!!
