Azazello1313 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 and I'm proud of my state. CO tax increase "for the children" goes down in flames It was the most significant tax measure to appear before any U.S. voters this year and early returns suggest voters wanted nothing to do with it. Colorado’s Proposition 103, which would have marginally raised state income and sales taxes to fund education, was drawing roughly 35 percent support in the hours after polls closed.... Stateline, a Pew Center on the States news website, called Proposition 103 a barometer on how Americans were feeling about taxes, a fraught question as presidential-year politics heats up. I think some blue folks were getting a little cocky about colorado, and this may be a bit of a rude awakening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 sounds like the issue may be "what are we spending our money on that is more important than education?" that we have to raise taxes for education. in other words, cut something else and use that money for education if education is more important.
