Personal tax rates going up from 3 to 5 percent; corporate tax rate is going from 4.8 to 7.

This is ridiculous. And how is this going to solve our problems?

She raised our taxes to fund more crosshair graphics to cause more Arizona attacks by atheists. Ooh, she's a crafty one.

The short-term solution to paying some bills, but the long-term problem is that they may end up with fewer people and businesses to pay them.

about Illinois' decision to raise taxes. "It's like living next door to `The Simpsons' — you know, the dysfunctional family down the block,"

If I'm the Gov, and/or Chamber of Commerce, of a neighboring state, I'd put my foot on the state of Illinois throat, and attract as much business and residents possible.

I'd give my right arm for a rate of 5%. What is California, 10% for the top rate? What I do find interesting is that Illinois' new rate is 5%, and it's not progressive. Last time I checked, IL is controlled by Democrats. Isn't a progressive tax rate one of the key tenets of liberals?

Whats not to love?  It Obama's home State.  What did you expect?  Its not about solving problems.  its about placing blame.

Federal Taxes actually went down on January 1st.  I guess Il is trying to avoid CA's fate of bankruptcy.
