Tales of a Tax Hell

First came the Milwaukee County Stadium tax which in all liklihood will be increased and extended into eternity despite assurances it would be a temporary tax.

Then came the proposed 1 cent Milwaukee County sales tax that could be put to voters in November, and would be applied only to the County of Milwaukee.
"The voters should trust us." -Larson

Pure comedy gold.

Then came Doyle's 46% vehicle registration fee increase, and his diver license fee increase.

MPS is constantly seeking to gouge the taxpayers of Milwaukee more and more with no intentions of living within a limited budget.

The City of Milwaukee penalizes business who get fed up with the poor business climate in this city, by insulting them with a final Business Death Tax.

And now 10 Milwaukee Alderman favor a $20 Dollar Wheel Tax.

Not to mention the plethora of other taxes.

Can anyone tell me why any employer would be insane enough to choose to do business here? Or why any existing business would be foolish enough not to look for a prompt escape?

Now that MillerCoors is off to better pastures, we need to get Briggs, Harley, and Northwestern Mutual out of here.
