any taxes given to oil and gas companies will only be passed on to us. it will not affect their profits one bit. only my wallet. today i rec 150.00 for taking part in something at work. after the taxes i got 99.70. they took one third in taxes. so cass do you really think taxing me more to help pay for your govt programs will help anything,,,except drive me to the poor house . perhaps in your big house on the hill looking over us little people more taxes will not hurt you. remember the casino's will help lower property taxes??? im stilll waiting for that one to come true. or the drink tax your golden boy tax and spend dan said would help the port authority?? seems they cut services and jobs!! hey cass since you can afford new and bigger taxes would you like to help me pay my property taxes that just came in the mail??
