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.

Eliminate all taxes in existence. Taxation is theft.

The Catholic Church swept pedophile priests under the rug for decades and facilitated human trafficking illegal immigration into this country. The pope and church deserve much criticism.

The Pope spends too much time protecting Islam.

Fred, Trumpism, is far better than socialism, and Trump, is the best President in your lifetime.

You don't threaten people with harm or death to gain peace. This is insane.

Disgraceful. Blasphemous. Politics has no place in religion. If a normal person went on such a disgusting tirade they would be fired from their job!

No politics, like the way the last communist pope was so anti-American and supported the global warming religion more than Christianity?
