foolsguineaFunny thing is, I don't particularly care about earnings taxes or real estate transfer taxes. But Prop. A & Amendm't 3 (Missouri) are shortsighted. It's the combination of attempting to prevent such taxes from being passed in the future, & grabbing power away from localities, that makes me rabidly opposed to these propositions.
Amendm't 1, otoh, is completely ridiculous. If you have to make a targeted exception to the rule you're putting in the constitution, why are you putting it in the constitution?
And if a tax break for POW's were a statute, I wouldn't object. In fact, I don't really care if this one passes, because it's hilarious. But it's still too goofy for me to really advocate it for the constitution.
