Here's the deal. It's not a big deal to them because they can afford to pay the taxes. Families are struggling and they know it and they didn't take the time to bring this up and vote on it. What's to vote about, just do it. And we pay their salaries, that's messed up. We need to take the time and vote them out of office. Hit them were it hurts. Their jobs. This was a big help and I have waited all summer on the tax free week. I could have been picking a few things up here and there during the summer. Now there is a couple of weeks, one pay check before school starts and I have to buy everything out of that check. When I can hardly pay my bills with my pay. That means getting behind on my bills. They should vote to make tax free week a yearly thing and stop messing around. Maybe the next group of people we vote into office will do that.
