My sales tax here is 8.9%, it's 6% on groceries.

State income tax is a bit over 5% and flat, everyone pays the same rate.  

This is one reason we go to the Costco up in Cobb county.

encouraging folks to eat groceries and not McDonalds is good

sin tax on beer and cigarettes - maybe there should be a sin tax on fast food and other poor choices, like lotto tickets

The lottery is a tax on people who are bad at math.

 Honestly this, right here, is exactly why the tax code is so complicated.  

It starts with encouraging folks to eat groceries and discouraging people from drinking and smoking then it goes to discouraging fast food.  

Pretty soon we have tax breaks for "green jobs" and the Egg Lobby wants tax breaks for chicken farmers and before you know it the tax code is 25,000 pages.

As much as I would love to see them indicted, it’s going to be hard to find a jurisdiction to actually indict them.  

I think the only way they could be charged is for lying to Congress and that jurisdiction is DC which sees them as heroes.

I'd like to see the crime exposed for what it was. Obama was also complicit, based on reports I've read. Of course, you'll see nothing on MSDNC, etc.

Obama approved the plan but I guarantee you the loyal lefties will always believe Russiagate is real and that anything done to Trump is completely justified.

none of these deep state cretin swamp creatures like Clapper or Brennan will ever see the inside of a prison cell where they belong.

When he was Obama's DNI James Clapper lied under oath to Congress and committed perjury 12 years ago in a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing and nothing ever happened to him. He got promoted and made millions of dollars giving speeches, doing consulting work, working for bullshit thinktanks, writing books, and being employed by CNN.

Regular Joe commits perjury to Congress their ass is going to jail.

“Disasters are a human choice”: Texas counties have little power to stop building in flood-prone areas

Experts suggested that more data and education are needed as Texas and the rest of the country build in known flood plains.
