No your wrong! Yes there was an income tax here that first went to 10 then to 16% before it was shot down. Sunset clauses almost never come to fulfilment. Have you ever heard of Federal Income Tax? It was started as a Temporary War Tax. It finally reached 90% under Dems, Carter. All taxes are always extended. Now if an income tax is instituted here, under the new Federal Tax reform the State Tax Deduction is eliminated, so you will pay both taxes in full. That is a job and business killer. Look at the flood of people headed for anywhere to get out of Income Tax States, like California because the taxes will kill them. That being said,  you know there is nothing to stop you from sending money to the State. Why don't you and all your Progressive Friends send in 10% or so of your yearly gross. How about That?  Go ahead, or is it that you don't make enough to pay any taxes. Have you you ever even given to Charities? Go ahead Jmf, put your money where your mouth is.
