As one who has always appreciated our history and heritage of the United States, I never dreamed I would feel this way. The divisiveness doesn't allow meaningful conversation to work toward solutions to any of our mutual problems. Shaking head Disappointed Praying

When you have an amoral narcissistic sociopath leading a political party with no allegiance to the rule of law, we are in serious trouble.

Looking at the actions taken by Texas Republicans at their convention one can only be concerned that one party could go off the rails!

It is closer to becoming a democracy than ever. It is supposed to be a republic. There IS a difference.

We have witnessed what happened in Kansas with such a plan and now they are doing it to Missouri.

Income tax is necessary in a state where people care about each...it funds necessary programs, like education. Our state lags behind most states when it comes to funding education and that hurts our future. To replace income tax with sales tax on services would be more expensive for everyone.

Income tax is socially responsible (the poor pay none or little; those who make more pay more) and dependably funds necessary services. If it is eliminated, sales taxes will SKYROCKET and we will ALL pay more in the long run, including those who can least afford it.
