TRUTH: Mike Beebe Loves Taxes!

The Truth In Arkansas Politics put this on their blog today: One year ago the state had a surplus of $500 million and was projected to hit $1 billion. Now, thanks to Beebe's push for a major increase in spending, the state is unsure about its financial future. And yesterday, Mike Beebe showed that his answer is not to cut wasteful spending but to lean on taxes: "I'm not going to lie to you. I don't know where we'd go without the income tax."


Let's be clear Mike: TAXES are not the answer. More government is not the answer. Taking money away from hard working Arkansans limits their purchasing power and actually lessens the amount of tax revenues the state will bring in. You get a thriving economy and record tax revenues that create surpluses by letting hard working Arkansans keep their MONEY!!!
