In
Washington:
House Democrats have proposed an income surtax on the highest wage-earners to help pay for a sweeping overhaul of the nation’s health care system. The proposal, which has little support in the Senate, would generate roughly $550 billion over 10 years.
Meanwhile,
in Cincinnati:
Cincinnati panhandlers would have to pay a fee to register, pay earnings tax on their collections and toss their hand-written “Please Help” signs under a plan to be proposed next month.Saying panhandling is as much of a business as, say, selling hotdogs, Councilman Jeff Berding is working on a plan he says will help make the city more appealing to residents and tourists.
I'm beginning to understand why this area has a "conservative" reputation...
