Wa State sales tax comment to consider

bellevueamerican — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 03:09:55 +0000

Often we hear the “objection” to paying sales tax, from people that live here, like living here, like what the local scene is about, kids attend school, they like police and fire protection and the bigger picture is about sending your hard earned money out of this state to support those that really could care less about anything other than shipping a box to an unknown person tat they will never hear from again. There is a much bigger picture that we seems to have been blinded to by the LCD monitors and the ‘fashionable’ way to buy a box. What you buy when you shop locally is what locals put on the table for you. Unmeasurable and priceless value by any standard. So what we hear now is raising the sales tax, possible state income tax when all this can be obviated by a little deeper thought.
