I noticed the Arguments section received a neutrality tag. I am wondering what we need to do so we can take it down, whether that means addition, subtraction, or reorganization of information. User:Kumarhk, since you placed it there, do you have any feedback on this? Thanks, - TenorTwelve ( talk) 08:00, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
Kumar Someone keeps adding something to the arguments section and I don't know if it should be there or not. Are they trying to talk about the pass-through income thing? https://news.wttw.com/2020/09/15/what-voters-need-know-about-fair-tax-amendment I don't know whether the things being alleged by the editor are true or not as there is not a citation and there are wordings that might not be the most encyclopedic. If this is a legitimate talking point, maybe it could be added. I'm still new to tax policy... - TenorTwelve ( talk) 06:16, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
I am the guy adding to the arguments section. The point I am trying to highlight is that the news media is only talking about the change in rates. The problem is they are not pointing out the other change - the ability to multiple income taxes in Illinois. In other words, currently, Illinois can only have one law establishing a single tax with one tax rate. What this amendment does is allow the current law to a graduated rate,and then add a second (or more) income taxes, with separate rules, separate rates, and separate use of funds. For example, Many years ago, when the State wanted to fund the CTA, one f the ideas floated was to have a state income tax on everyone in the state, create a "public transportation" fund, and give almost all the money to the CTA. It died a quick death because of the constitution. That is why the RTA was created. What I am really finding interesting is how everyone who is pushing the graduated tax rate, either tells me that multiple tax issue isn't going to happen, or that I should just shut up! As an accountant, I've only been dealing with the Illinois Dept. of Revenue for 50 years (just retired), and I can tell you that this change is the most scary I've seen. I will be putting the changes back in, and i have found a link to this issue. Please, who ever keeps taking this out, let it stand. We need everyone to be fully informed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1008:b06a:a70a:db8:dbfa:30a8:5603 ( talk) 16:07, 19 September 2020 time, day month year (UTC)
I found a poll and I'm not sure whether it should be included. It is of only Chicago executives and the Fair Tax is leading with 55% in favor and 45% opposed. It did not survey the entire populace. It was published September 2, 2020. Currently all of the polls listed are pre-pandemic. I'm looking for more polls and haven't found them yet. [1] - TenorTwelve ( talk) 03:14, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
