So, we are supposed to be mad that businesses aren't demanding that legislation to tax them be drafted immediately.

I am so outraged that I am not having more taxes levied on me I am going straight to the capital to request, nay, demand that they take more of my money!

How dare these businesses not beg to be taxed. It's an outrage!

^Agreed. Stupid premise for an article. Self interest is not that shameful.

I know teachers and substitute teachers who oppose giving PPS more money. Not because they hate children or oppose taxes, but because the entrenched bureaucracy is so irresponsible and unaccountable. Throwing more money at the problem doesn't help if the money doesn't actually reach the issues that need addressing.
