What an interesting concept, eliminating the Massachusetts state income tax…
Supporters of Question 1, a measure that would eliminate the state’s 5.3 percent income tax, denounced government spending as wasteful and excessive and said workers deserve to keep more of their wages in hard economic times.
At best I have a distant memory that a similar resolution almost passed 6 years ago.
In 2002, a similar ballot measure gained 45 percent of the vote, a level of support that stunned many political observers.
