Dear Source:
When is this government going to stop putting all the financial burden of running this government upon the business community?? We have already over-committed the Gross Receipts Tax system. It is time this government finds another way to finance their ventures or start cutting back on some of their frivolous expenditures, like the grossly overpriced Legislative Budget. Every budget sees a sharp increase of millions of dollars, yet never shows where that increase is supposed to come from. We the taxpayers (especially those of us who don't work for the government) are suffering, just trying to stay alive and pay our bills. We can't afford to keep having these additional burdens placed on us.
