Recent Politics
I am just reviewing a few things that have occurred within the last month or so.
First, there is nothing wrong with encouraging people to save, but Hilly boy's Tennessee Saves bill doesn’t accomplish a thing. It is a waste of time and taxpayer money. It is very similar to the bill that criticizes the national debt. Too many politicians just need to get a life. By the way, good job Nathan Vaughn for standing up for what the political system is supposed to be about.
The bill for a sales tax holiday for school supplies sounded good, but why was only half of the desired amount passed? I am convinced a more seasoned representative would have had more success with it as House Republican Leader Tre Hargett said “I think both parties are interested in passing that legislation this year."
And, while the failed milk and bread tax exemption was sponsored by Hilly boy, Crowe co-sponsors it. I truly doubt Hilly boy came up with much of it on his own. Oh well, what else is new?
