Letter to the Editor
Hats off for job well done
To Heppner Rodeo and Fair
Boards:
Our hats off to you all. It was
the best 'Fair and Rodeo' yet,
fast paced, clean, something for
everyone. To all of you that put
in so many long hours, and
will never receive a cent for it
and all the committees and
policy makers, you did a great
job!
(s) Steve and Linda Yaw
2 percent equal tax could be only state tax
To the Editor:
How would you like to live
in a state where there are: no
property taxes; no state taxes;
no 24 cent per gallon gasoline
tax; no co rp o rate taxes,
unemployment taxes, timber
severance taxes, replacement
tire taxes, cigarette, beer or
wine taxes; no car, boat, RV or
any other vehicle license fees;
where schools have the money
they need to give our children
a good education; where there
is no college or secondary
school tuition (or as near none
as is possible-projected for
1996); where the only state tax
is the 2 percent Equal tax and
you "pay as you go" according
to what you spend. Spend
$40,000 in one year, pay $800.
Spend $20,000 pay $400. Spend
$12,000, pay $240. Where you
have fair tax that works because
everyone pays a little, but no
one is over burdened. A tax
that puts you in control of your-
money and not the state and
to u rists,
d ru g
d ealers,
foreigners and tax cheats will
help with the paying.
You will, if enough people
vote yes on the 2 percent Equal
Tax initiative (no. 20) that will
be on the ballot this November
1994. This may be our last
chance for a long time to put
this bold new plan into effect.
Let's do it.
Sincerely,
(s) Janette Kirkland
