The car tax is an excellent example of how RI operates: If you stick it to taxpayers long enough, they will quibber about the rate and not the fact the tax exists in the first place. If the City of Warwick mposed a "modest" 1% tax toIt's the pick up garbage, I'm sure some would dispute the rate, but everntually capitualate. It's the same with the state. What, exactly, are you receiving for a state income and sales tax that residents of NH are NOT receiving for their lack of a sales or income tax???!!! We can debate NH"s property tax rates. But we can not debate NH's status as lowest total taxed state in the country. All the while, the roads are good. The dropout rate low. SAT's are high. Bottom line: When you let the tax camel's nose in the tent, the only remaining question is: Where should he take a dump? Keep in mind, both RI's sales tax (at 1%) and income tax (also at 1%) were deemed "temporary" when passed>
