Palin position on Taxes
|
• "Everybody does benefit when government takes less from the people, no matter what their income bracket is, because our businesses and our families are able to keep more of what they're earning, reinvest in what they have as priorities. That's how jobs are created. And that's how we're going to grow our economy." Palin in a Fox News interview on September 17th 2008.
• Sarah Palin is against raising taxes as she says it will harm people with small businesses and hurt jobs. She wonders how people who start new ventures will be any better off if the taxes are increased.
• Palin was elected as the mayor on the basis of her promise to encourage economic improvement in the valley town of Wasilla, Alaska and she kept her promises. As the Mayor she cut down property taxes and sales taxes in order to help build an indoor skating rink and sports complex. She also deposited more funds towards safety of the public and managed to get a grant to set up a police dispatch center in the town.
• Palin said that she intends reduce or get rid of taxes on business license fees and tire taxes stating that after the citizens, it was the state that the natural resources were the wealth of the nation.
• To help Alaska's families and small businesses, the backbone of our local economies, I propose to repeal nuisance taxes, including the tire tax. We shouldn't make Alaskans pay a premium to keep families safe driving Alaska's roads. And we'?ll significantly reduce business license fees." Palin said in her address to the 24th Alaskan legislature in 2008 January.
