Charging corporations a percentage for taking natural resources out of the ground to sell and using that money for the benefit of the citizens and to balance the state budget is anti-conservative?

I have not said that, have I? The issue is not whether to tax but by how much to tax. The Governor suggests that the tax is too high and proposes to reduce it. Reduction (not elimination) of taxes is generally championed by conservatives, so on its face value it is not wrong. The Governor may or may not be right --- the devil is in the details. But the article claims he is wrong without saying a word on why that is so.
