QUESTION 21: There is a proposal being considered that would reform North Carolina's tax system. Among other things, it would not tax the first 12 thousand dollars of any family's income, would institute a flat tax rate for personal income above that amount, and lower the corporate tax rate. The proposal would also lower the sales tax rate, BUT would expand sales taxes to services not currently being taxed. Do you support or oppose this tax reform proposal?
