Big Misperceptions to Push Tax Increase

Big Misperceptions Push Tax Increase

Former U.S. House Majority Leader Dick Armey, R-Texas, is co-chairman of Citizens for a Sound Economy.

DICK ARMEY says the big spenders in Montgomery are using two major misperceptions to push the largest tax hike in state history. The first myth is the idea that Alabama citizens don't already pay enough in taxes, and second is the idea that public education in Alabama is underfunded. Both ideas are wrong.

Higher taxes, more spending, no reform: It's just more of the same from Montgomery. All of this is why Alabama voters should ignore the myths surrounding Amendment 1 and vote no on Sept. 9. The facts are that Alabamians already pay enough taxes, and the public education system already has enough funding.
