1) There is no legal recourse if something goes wrong. 2) These dangerous gene therapies have never been tried before. 3) The chief executive does not make laws. 4) Something needs to happen to Joe Biden.

Max

Biden has no authority to do this, and he will soon find that out.

Larry Sabulsky

Mandates need to go away. Freedom needs to return.

Paul Hamby

not the role of the federal government. the mandate is unconstitutional and that is the question the high court should be answering

Fredrick Green

It's not the government's job to tell someone to get a vaccination. While I promote getting the vaccine it is up to the person to make their decision on receiving the vaccine.

Jacob G

It is now known public info that the vaccines do not prevent the vaccinated from spreading COVID19. Therefore the mandate, targeting only the unvaxxed for weekly testing does not stop the vaccinated from workplace spread.

Lisa Gore

It is illegal for the government to claim they are smarter than every citizen in the US for making our own sound intelligent medical decisions like they have a conservatorship over us. It’s called Parens Patrae, also the Brandon-admin lawyer said the unvaxed are a threat to vaxed=vaxes dont work🇺🇸

The government argued that the mandates are necessary to protect the health and safety of workers and patients.

Employers are expected to provide a safe working environment. Employers providing health insurance benefit will have tor raise premiums or stop offering all together.

Max

Forcing a person to inject a foreign substance into their body, is not providing a safe work environment for that person, or for anyone else. It is also unconstitutional.

Education for children is based on scheduling?

Latria Mcneal

Not seeing very good returns on the 5 day schedule. Are we sure 4 days are the answer. Dropping standards is never an option. You soften standards on discipline and look where it has got you. Do the hard right over the easy wrong.

Max

One full day, for the kids to be unsupervised, in most cases, spells DANGER for them, but if it's good for the teachers, then let's do it. Teachers Unions have been so good, for so for so long, for everyone, but the children, and their parents....

Income tax is unconstitutional when all other taxes are placed on top of it.

Shawn Maupin

Because I believe taxation is theft!

Dennis Ganahl

It's time to position Missouri for growth. We need to attract business and population growth not more stagnation. Taxes need to be affordable based on what people can pay, not what government wants to spend. Government needs to budget just like families.

Slate Rogers

I am in favor of a state income tax cap of 3 percent and eliminating the personal property tax completely.

C Sims

I support doing away with all taxes

Max

The harder that people work, the more taxes they pay. That's wrong. The people that won't work should pay the most taxes.

Debbie A.

It is unconstitutional and theft

Bob Mahacek

We need to streamline government, make it more efficient and have lower taxes to attract more residents as well as businesses to the state.

Mike Roemerman

This is the #1 tax cut that will help Grow Missouri. Eliminating State Income Tax will attract Business, Create Jobs and increase our population. This also exclusively benefits Missourians.

Nancy Hooyman

I'm 70 and it takes too much money away from me.

Pam Ames

The citizens of Missouri are taxed enough, we deserve to enjoy some of the fruits of our labor.Next stop should be phasing out personal property taxes, sales tax, etc, etc…

Bill Douglas

Ban state employees from attending professional and college sports events. Also ban state employees from displaying college/university personalized license plates on their vehicles.

Max

If phasing out taxes, phases out Socialism, then it's a great idea.

We eliminated capital gains tax last year and now our target is income tax? I feel we should get more productive spending and figure out the position of our tax burden before we think about eliminating income tax. It feels like Gov. Kehoe is using this as political points.

Steve Baumann

We all need to be paying our fair share. There are other questionable taxes to be looked into and removed. Along with tax cuts, cuts to the bureaucracy as well.

nathaniel bock

The tax we need to eliminate or change is personal property tax on vehicles, tractors, trailers, etc. There should be no taxes paid on anything an individual has owned longer than ten years.

Will Mason

Sales taxes are paid by the poor. Income taxes favor the poor. Unless a refund of sales taxes is an option, income taxes are cheaper for low income people. And a sales tax refund is probably just as complex as filing income taxes. Either way the government is getting our money.

Hayden Hamlin

Missouri barely pays for WIC, SNAP, Healthcare, and education as is. The Trump Admin passed a bill that will cancel more funding to states for these. Who's going to replace the main source of revenue? The billionaire class? Absolutely not. Our state only offers cheap living; this will raise prices.

Max

Socialism is not the solution.

Max

Maybe some people should put more effort into working for a living?
