Flat tax! FLAT TAX!!! Governor Ice Cream Man wants to turn Arizona into Kansas

This insanity also put Kansas into bankruptcy! Flat taxes ATTACK the poorest of Arizonans.

I don't need to go into the math here on DU, but how anyone can support this is beyond me?

We need a tax overhaul to get Arizona off its addiction to consumption taxes, and this is not it!

On wealth over $5 million per person.

As you accumulate more wealth the excess is taxed.

The more you grow your wealth the more you pay.

That support will trickle down to the ignorant.

We have a flat tax in Illinois. We just lost the vote to switch to a progressive tax.

You should have seen the ads. There was an impressive mobilization effort against it.

The poorest people around, who would have actually got a nice tax break, had signs in their yards against the progressive tax.

I saw absolutely zero support for it in my downstate district. No ads, no yard signs, no canvassing.

Why, oh why, was the recall drive cancelled? Is there any way that we can start another one?
