So the bottom line is nothing will change. Tax cuts based on a requirement that has never been met and property tax cuts off-set by unlimited local government tax increases. Pure smoke and mirrors by the politicians that only a fool would take as a “win” for the tax payers.
When will we stop allowing the politicians to BS us?!
The chickens of MAGA rhetoric are coming home to roost. Sadly, Indiana Repubs have chosen red-meat MAGA rhetoric and blind allegiance to Trump over smart public policy that builds our state.
Indiana’s dependence per capita on international trade is among the top 5 in America, so ANYTHING that impedes free trade kills Indiana econ growth — tariffs may hurt Indiana more than any other state; (2) population growth is the first increment of economic growth so curtailing immigration puts a lid on econ growth; (3) glorification of low-education jobs and denigration of high education jobs = the glorification of low income. Very sad state of affairs.
Still part of the bait and switch scheme. Today the big announcement was that Indiana tax revenue is predicted to fall by billions of dollars, and lawmakers were still voting in tax cuts. I’m sure with the revenue triggers built into the law, everyone in the state house was winking and nodding while they patted themselves on the back because they voted for “tax cuts” when they knew all along nothing was going to change.
