I too am a small, progressive business owner and I've taken a hard look at both the opposition and advocates' campaign information and "bi-partisan" research and I fear that advocates are leading small business owners like us astray. While C-Corporations with sales (NOT profits) above $25 mil may be writing the big tax checks to the state, all of the smaller businesses who depend on distribution and products from those large companies will be paying bit-by-bit as the cost is passed down-the-line. Yes some large company profits will decrease, but I also fear this Hail Mary attempt to fix our education funding deficit will end up hurting small businesses and working parents the most, as they pay the tax or lose their jobs in the process. I am a strong advocate for quality education and I know we need to find a solution. Unfortunately, the more I learn about the consequences of the "solution" put in front of us, the harder it is for me to believe this is the right solution for our state.
