I have not seen any Strayhorn stickers. But what is the straight poop about the state income tax?

But what is the straight poop about the state income tax?

Just a little insight into her logic:
http://www.window.state.tx.us/news/40628taxcredit.html
...Citizens in Texas and seven other states are denied fair and equitable tax treatment because they have no state income tax,..."The current system is unfair," Strayhorn said. "It discriminates against Texans and the citizens of other states who have decided against a state income tax. As a result, Texans pay a higher percentage of taxes to the federal government than their neighbors in Oklahoma and Arkansas, which have a state income tax. That's wrong.

"An Oklahoman who pays a state income tax can deduct that amount from her or his federal tax return. But the antiquated federal law punishes those of us who pay state and local sales taxes rather than state income taxes," Strayhorn said. "If Texas taxpayers could deduct sales taxes and motor vehicle sales taxes, the playing field would be level...."

Yes, Ma Richards the second thinks it's unfair that Texans don't have a State income tax they can deduct from their federal income tax.. Her logic is off the wall..

The straight poop is that there better damn well not be one or we're heading to Austin with pitchforks, hot tar, and torches. And all the feather pillows we can find. The franchise tax is a de facto income tax anyway, so they've already put it over on us. Friggin' RINOs.
