Re: PO, Ferd and other Texans

PO I think some of these people have not thought out their responses but have a mentality of doing things the way it has always been done.

In one of the comments the person gave an example of Walmart closing due to folks crossing the border to buy tires from another state to avoid the paying of taxes. Actually, I think he is wrong for two reasons. One food items are not going to be taxed as Medina stated, and if he/she really knew where she stands on this would have known that, and secondly folks from across the border may come to buy their food here to avoid their taxes.

But the truth of the matter most folks shop where it is convient. Their time is worth more or as much as their money.

Folks living under the bridge due to these taxes is again rediculous. For one thing folks on a fixed income would have a greater chance of NOT losing their homes if there is no property tax. Their essential needs of food is still not taxed. So folks moving under the bridge again is an attempt to frighten people away from Medina.

As to who has the most to lose with this concept? I don't see anyone particular person would due to a sales tax. If you have the money to buy something then you probably have the money to pay the taxes as well. Whereas, someone that has paid for their property then lose it to unpaid taxes has the most to lose.

I think this is an effort to scare away folks to vote against Medina.

I think she is sincere is what she says and I believe she will do everything she can to make it happen.

Whether or not she can make it happen, I really don't know. But I do know this, nothing happens if you don't at least try.

I feel this way, Medina is my first choice, Perry my second, yet if Kay were to win it would not be the end of the world for me. I think this is the best time for me to say, wake up life-long politicans, I'm tired of your same ole same ole. I want the middle class protected and my rights restored that you have been giving away.
