Problems of the Tax Structure in Tennessee

Paper Summary:

In this paper the author examines the proposal by the governor of Tennessee, to introduce a new levy on the state income tax. According to the author, the proposed levy was to cover a short fall in revenues of the state. But, as the paper proceeds to discuss, there was a firestorm of political activity that raged as the voting public very swiftly and by every means available let their legislators know an income tax would not be appreciated. The author carries on discussing all of the political issues surrounding the taxation in Tennessee, including the budget shortfalls that became apparent when the accounts were publicized. He concludes that the state of Tennessee has a large mess on their hands and some difficult decisions to make before the final voting takes place.

From the Paper:

"The Central Division runs from the Time Line to the North flowing Tennessee River 70 miles west of Nashville. This is now the largest population density area of the state and politically are a bunch of wishy-washy fence sitters that generally vote for the current hot button issue whether its Democratic or Republication. The Nashville area, including the manufacturing plants of Saturn, Nissan, to the south and all their allied industries plus a newly committed addition of several thousand jobs by the Dell Corporation in Nashville proper contribute heavily to the tax base but still remain third overall in contributions."
