Are you fed up with paying school taxes in Pa.?

Well, SOMEBODY has to pay for the schools.. Under this bill, instead of property tax supporting schools, most of the replacement tax would come from income and sales tax increases.

I am a senior citizen, retiree, living in PA. I would do well under this bill Since pensions including IRAs and 401Ks and ss are not subject to PA income tax,I would see little increase there. Currently I pay a lot more in property tax that I would in increased income and sales tax, and my house is a fairly average house, no mansion..

Most homeowners making around $100K a year or so or less would likely about break even or be better off under this bill.

A working poor renter would pay quite a bit more - these are the people who would make up much of the $12.68 billion dollars. And landlords aren't likely to decrease rent to make up for their lower expenses.

No, I don't support this bill.

... and businesses would pay nothing (again). The state has difficulty balancing a budget, I have little faith that the money would ever make it back to the public school system that is being bled dry by unregulated charter schools.

Some of our Reps are catering to the 1% ...and not to the majority...

They claim that it is a tax increase instead of a tax replacement.

It is revenue neutral.

thank you i will pass the info to people i know in PA everyone has concerns for tax systems
