[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 3164755, member: 1294"] Other stuff about Edmondson... "A restoration of the 7 percent gross production tax, an increase of 50 cents on the price of a pack of cigarettes,” said Edmondson. “And elimination of the capital gains loophole for millionaires" Edmondson says those increases will add about $300 million to the $400 million the legislature passed this year. "It will not affect the income tax rates of any Oklahomans unless they deduct capital gains. But it will not affect the income tax rate itself." But Edmondson, who got the endorsement of former governor and US senator David Boren, says more money is still needed to adequately fund schools. “We need all that we can get,” he said. I see two problems here, first the unending need for more tax money with no mention of purpose or goals much less reforms. Then there's the backing by Boren who was apparently very remiss about concerns or oversight of spending at OU. The article below gives details of what appear to be fraud if not outright theft which the new president caught on to immediately...raises the question if they both share the tax and spend philosophy.
