editor Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 In a couple of weeks voters in Washington state will decide if they want to start an income tax. Texas is using this to its advantage:Texas Gov. Rick Perry has sent letters to around 90 top employers and a few business associations in Washington urging companies worried about taxes to head on over to his state."As the State of Washington considers a multibillion-dollar tax increase for citizens and businesses ... I invite you to consider your future in America's new land of opportunity: the State of Texas," Perry wrote."If Washington doesn't want your business, Texas does. Texas has no personal income tax and no interest in getting one."http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politicsnorthwest/2013224923_texas_hopes_initiative_1098_wi.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
713 To 214 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Perry is also going to win this election with his Texas = no/low taxes, good for business (relocation), good for jobs, strong on (*cough*) public education mantra. Despite voters' fatigue of Rick Perry, it doesn't look good for White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
