     It amazes me that anyone could propose a new tax during such a difficult time.  Who will pay it when we are all homeless?

    When no one is making it as it is, DON'T tax our counties anymore.  Let area groups, individuals, churches support their area homeless and give them tax breaks accordingly.  There is a lot of good work being done without government, let's support that!

    No   Anyone lucky enough to sell their home under these economic conditions should not be burdened with another tax. We have volunteers at soup kitchens, warming centers, and food pantrys (of which I'm a volunteer), etc..  NO MORE TAXES AND/OR FEE'S!!

    What would we do with the trust fund, build homes for the homeless?  What new government entity would we need to enforce this???  What happened to common sense?  Let's let the charities work and government should work also, maybe even more than less than 100 days a year????
