But revenue bonds say the magic wand artists, are different; they’re retired out of earnings, What they don’t-admit, however, is that operating expenses of such revenue bond stances, paid out of tax funds. Mr. _ Everyman pays part of the bill on his meter reading and part to the tax cellector—and seldom learns what the project really costs him! The proponents of this sample of indirect tax are busy at the moment, trying , to get the legislature to re-enact the old Garrison Revenue Bond Act, . which the voters smacked down in 1938 by nearly a million majority. Then, there’s the payroll tax. That of course, isn’t a tax; it’s something you’re really putting aside toward a rainy day, so that you can draw your savings, week by week, when another depression knocks the props out from under your regular employment But the fact of the matter is that during the past year employers and employees together put some $75,000,000 into the unemployment insurance fund, and some $65,00,000 was taken out (even in a comparatively good year) by claimants of unemployment benefits. The pay out policy is so liberal in other words, that there’ll be little left to pail you out—come that rainy day. Too many people are taking 13 weeks vacations at the expense of you and your neigh bors and government officials are doing little to check. If you want to know what government is costing you from here in, don’t be an old fogy; don’t just look at your tax bills. Take a look at the price tag on that new suit or new automobile: read your gas meter; see what the state (not the boss!) takes out of your paycheck; watch the price of silk stockings and theatre tickets. In each and every item, ladies and gentlemen, the tax will be tacked on to the purchase price. But you have to keep up with the . projects can be and are, in many in.
