Property tax is a heinous tax.

I think the legislature has a responsibility to assure safety to not only the workers but also the public.

We must reduce spending. Look at what the legislature is doing right now. They are getting $9 million from the lottery and are planning to spend it. Give the money back to the taxpayers. Raising income tax for property tax relief makes sense.

The first thing people want is to be safe. We ask people to dedicate their lives to protect and keep the community and the state safe. You can't expect to get them for nothing.

Our laws just keep growing and growing and growing.
