goodbye STAR

Eliminating a tax exemption for clothes and shoes under 110.00

means the shoes and clothes that are under 110 are tax exempt now… therefore in the future that exemption will be gone … AKA Taxing clothes and shoes under 110 …

AKA Poor people being Taxed, Not black people… they buy expensive shoes.

Look for all those 99.99 shoes to jump to 110.00 real quick.

whats sad is there will be people buying shoes for 110 instead of 80 bucks for the tax exemption… I’m excited to hear the first reports of such…

when only 101 to 109.99 shoes will go over the 110… LOL

the only thing keeping me in this area is MY job… if i ever got a decent chance to move out of NYS i would be gone in a seocnd

:word:

:fail: clothing is tax free now… he wants to put back the tax on items above $110, or maybe all… but it won’t be just a tax on items under $110.

Exactly… Once Melissa (Fiance, soon to be wife) is done with her degree; hopefully the economy rebounds a little; then we can GTFO of NY…

Gotta love NYS. Where is all of your money going, not to hard working people. I already have plans to move out of state. I love my home, but cannot expect to ever get on my feet in this area with crappy jobs and out of control taxs.

Well, there is currently no tax on clothing.

Article says he wants to END the tax EXEMPTION on items UNDER $110

To me, that reads as no tax on clothes that are MORE than $110…

amirite?

Wall Street goes down in flames and ALL of NY has to cough up the missing tax base.

Spend $10 to save $4? What are you, female? :rimshot:

do we get strippers?

I just bought a house, and have never received star.

Does this just mean that they are going to stop sending us those 400 dollar checks, or are they going to double our property taxes?

My STAR taxes saves me about 900 per year…

Time to get out while we are still young.

Hillary leaves and this state goes in the crapper…

IT IS LIKE TAKING CANDY FROM A BABY! STFU AND PAY YOUR TAXES BITCH! WE AINT CUTTIN’ SPENDING!

:banghead: you can’t be serious

I assumed he was joking or retarded so I ignored him.

haha, I was joking…I thought it was funny. I am a republican, but that is also funny as of late, really I have no party that represents my veiws, just a bunch of kooks running around. I mean when you have to vote for Nader because you choice is McCan’t I got big problems…

It looks like it’s just the STAR Rebate and not the STAR exemption.

Blue state FTL.

But I’m sure we’ll keep being a blue state, where cuts to bloated social programs and out of control unions just aren’t an option.

I was honestly just laughing at people today at work who were flipping out. The same idiots who keep voting for these union endorsed democrats are the ones crying now. If it weren’t costing me so much money it would almost be worth it just to say I fucking told you so.
