    Definitely a force to be reckoned with in the future. Rep Frost please work on taxing property instead of wages. The top one percent owns 90 percent of our country’s wealth. Please tax the wealth and give the wage earner a chance to own some of the property. Simply add a line to the property tax bill. Look to NH. It works. Scrap the insanity in the current tax system.
