Because with prices going up on everything else thanks to Mr. Biden we need a break . We pay enough as it is now. So we don't need to pay more sales tax on food. People are having a hard time already.

We should NOT be taxed on essential needs, this means living should not be taxed. We should tax non essential items. That's why we struggle. It almost gives us a break.

A core necessity shouldn't be taxed. Alternatively, you could limit the tax to the wealthy. Removing this tax will help the poor and struggling households.

This would be a good thing, but counties and cities would have to follow suit, to make it work. The out the door tax, for most cities, is about 4.2%. That includes state, county, and city taxes. Missouri can be better than that.

Many states don't have sales tax on food or prescription drugs. Missouri should step up to that higher standard. And the counties and cities should also step up to that standard as well. Most of us currently pay about 4.75% on food, and 7.75% for taxable items, look at your next grocery receipt.

Many states don't have tax on food, or prescription drugs. I am sad to say, that most of those states, are liberal. One of the few things liberal states do, that is better.

Many instances of P. Biden showing non cognitive behavior, his wife running a cabinet meeting, bad showing at the debate, many memory lapses, many falls, many wandering off at photo opps & having to be guided back, & just many many incorrect statements! Many people trying to hide his real condition.

Felon47 needs to let President Biden enjoy his retirement. Felon47 is the one who needs to be investigated for his criminal behavior and convicted.

Lawfare. Overturned by a higher court.

There is nothing to investigate. This is the usual Trump projection.
