This simple, very simple answer to a very complicated problem:  The Defecit in New York is made simple.  Below it is being submitted again, by me in Sept. 2011, as it was revised since Feb. 2011.  It reads:

       Repeal of the 1979 Amendment to the New York State Stock  Transfer Tax of 1905

   Whereas, New York State implemented the 1905 New York State Stock Transfer Tax to provide needed revenues to New York State and

 Whereas, the intention of the 1905 Stock Transfer Tax was to give the New York State Economy and New York State Residents much needed revenue for maintenance and growth of New York State , and   

Whereas, The New York State Stock Transfer Tax is $.05 per share on each and every transfer and is paid by the investor, and

Whereas since 1979 New York State rebates the tax, not to the taxpayer, but to the Wall Street brokers and speculators, and

 Whereas, the time has come to restore necessary lost revenues to New York State as the 1905 Stock Transfer Tax was originally intended for, and

Whereas, a repeal of the 1979 Rebate of the New York State Stock Transfer Tax should be placed into immediate effect to maintain all revenues for the maintenance and growth of New York State ,and  therefore, 

      Be it Resolved, that the New York State Stock Transfer Tax Rebate be immediately Repealed and cease to exist, and therefore,

Be it finally resolved, that New York State collect and utilize all revenues from the 1905 Stock Transfer Tax for the maintenance and growth of New York State. 

  What does everyone think?

 

The Union Contractors were left out in the dark today. The Verizon Administrators failed to negotiate a new contract. This is as serious as it gets folks.

  The voice of the people must be heard and stop this from happening. Verizons profits carried over 19 plus Billion Dollars in the last 4 years, yet they also pay ” O ” taxes?

 Our Public Safety is also in jeophardy, Emergency Services will suffer greatly, this is not acceptable by any means.

 Dutchess County Residents deserve better than what Verizon Officials and Administrators are doing to us. Do not let the Verizon Administration cast aside our workers after using them for Profits alone?
