I spoke with two State Senators together prior to the Monday Night Football game versus the Patriots a couple of weeks ago. Both are RATS and both have been against an income tax. They told me that this latest court ruling will allow Naifeh to force his income tax down our throats with little opposition from either side of the aisle in the General Assembly.
Our General Assembly looks for the easy way out of all difficult matters. Maybe we need to work at cleaning oot the entire General Assembly at every opportunity and make it a duty for the common citizen and not a career postion as some have made it.
Oh, you mean the ruling that TennCare must reinstate all those parasites? Still, an income tax can't pass without the votes, and Naifeh can't ram anything through without the votes.
Did the makeup of the legislature change significantly in the last election?
Did pro-IT people get knocked out and replaced with anti-IT folks?
Did the political makeup of the House and Senate change much with regard to Dems v. Pubs?
Thanks.
