Also, tax increases are never good for the economy. Some residual effects from raising these company's taxes: Employees may not get the kind of raises they may otherwise expect. Their bonuses, if they get any, may be smaller. Plus these company's might not hire the extra person they might otherwise if this tax increase didn't happen. I'm sure Bob Meeks told the board and CAC to only give the sugar coated parts. They may have, but I don't remember any pro-bond people on this sight talking in terms of the total bond cost of $156,000,000 and the consequences it will have on business'. Oh, they say, it'll only cost a couple of boxes of donuts per month per X evaluation. Of course on that I'm being facetious. But you get the point! Interesting indeed!
