Vote against the 1% General Revenue Sales and Use Tax increase. If the government wants more money let them propose a SPET project, so that the public has more control over the spending. Government has a responsibility to provide first responders, a court system, basic infrastructure (roads, sewer and water), land use planning, and beyond that please leave us alone. Unfortunately, our electeds and their supporting bureaucracy are very ambitious, and confident that they can spend our money more wisely than we can. Increasing the general revenue tax will allow electeds carte blanche for more invasive and expensive ideological mischief. Keep the government circumscribed within a budget that requires hard choices, just like the rest of us have to make. Adding 1% in additional tax is actually a 16.66% increase in the amount collected. If they get their 7% will that be enough? Probably not. I suspect they will keep trying to raise taxes as long as we keep giving in to them. You work hard for your money vote to keep it in your pocket.
