Am I the only one finding it laughable that a tax credit is being proposed as a policy solution after the legislature acted to phase out the state income tax?
I guess a temporary solution is better than nothing.

Local TV news (usually metro areas) leads off with the worst crime of the day (breaking news). Even a low crime rate coupled with a large population is sufficient to generate hysteria.
