Should the Tax Payers of Massachusetts even be shocked and appalled, at the mere fact Beacon Hills finest in the State Senate have come up a new tax so absurd? Well unfortunately the liberal left side of the elected Senate are at it again, Senator Robert O’Leary of Barnstable have concocted such a bill. Senator O’Leary proposed a bill that would punish manufacturers and distributors by adding a new TAX on the product(s) these companies make, and/or sell. Which the result will obviously be paid by the consumers of the common wealth.

Clearly Beacon Hill has not received the Memo, Massachusetts is one the most affected states of the recession, yet the far left of the spectrum in the state still come up with a new tax that just has to be paid by the residents of the Commonwealth. Instead of trying to solve the problem and following, the Town of Holbrook in attempting to reduce the amount trash thrown out by a house hold a week, they feel they can tax their way out.

The Town of Holbrook came up with a program that is attempting to solve the problem with out having the taxpayers dish out cash mandatory. Holbrook officials came up with an idea of have a house hold purchase a large blue trash bag, mark it town of and it will be picked up by the town. Now if someone feels it unnecessary to take out the trash this way, the individual can go through a private contractor. Each bag sold at $3.00 a piece may seem steep; however, one has to factor in how much they dispose of on a given week on average. An elderly household versus a household with a family of four will be quiet different.

Maybe before this recession ends and everything is on the up swing and in an “Economic Boom”. The Liberal Democrats in the Commonwealth will get in through their thick heads, THIS IS NOT THE CHANGE WE NEED, OR WANT!
