As far as we're ordsprog

As far as we're concerned, any discussion of cigarette tax revenue in this budget ought to focus exclusively on collecting the taxes they've been letting escape all these years.

Cigarette taxes are an unstable source of revenue.

The evidence is clear that increasing the price of cigarettes is one of the most effective ways to reduce smoking, especially among children and pregnant women. Preliminary evidence confirms that every state that has significantly increased its cigarette tax in recent years has enjoyed substantial increases in revenue, even while reducing cigarette sales. Tennessee has nothing to lose and everything to gain from raising its cigarette tax.

Any budget that raises taxes is not a budget that lives within its means. Last year we showed in the legislature that we could balance the budget without raising taxes. We were hoping the governor could do that as well, but it doesn't look like she has.

The discussion deals with letting [the tax] sunset, asking it to be renewed, or finding other means to accommodate the lost of revenue.

The figures that are being distributed correct the mistaken estimates that were first provided to legislators (by other legislators) during the debate, which did not take into account the fact that grocery sales revenue will go up and cigarette tax revenue will go down, just as has been occurring for the past 10 years.

Citizens should pay very careful attention to this budget process, given the significant increases in taxes over several years and the difficulty city staff has had in suggesting ways to reduce taxes.

They are saying that I am the same as a landlord. They said I should have been collecting taxes for the past six or seven years. I said, 'show me the city code that applies,' and they couldn't.

We're pretty confident it will be maintained or continued. Unlike other Bush tax provisions, it actually raises tax revenue under the budget rules because participants are paying taxes today.

We understand their claim to fame is not raising the budget. But we're concerned with all the money paid to administrators. In fact, they should be lowering taxes.

His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. This isn't about revenue, but before you can focus on revenue, you have to have cost certainty. Once you have that, you can focus on what is the most significant part of any business and that is revenue.

Smokers are made better-off by taxes, as they provide a valuable self-control device, ... Do Cigarette Taxes Make Smokers Happier?

The real importance is making sure the businesses understand the situation. In two or three years, [collecting taxes] will be forced and mandated. If this isn't something that's coming up at the investors meeting, you need to ask them the question again. This isn't going to go away.

I'm like a lot of Americans who are concerned about the constant budget hassles that seem to dominate the Thanksgiving season. Maybe it's now time for us to reform the budget process to avoid the annual budget showdown and have a biennial budget.

George W. Bush (1946-)

Every one of the best tax systems raises sufficient revenue without imposing at least one of the three major state taxes -- sales taxes, personal income tax and corporate income taxes.
