Plans to cut income taxes in Kansas shifts burden to farmers and ranchers

The Tea Party has swept across politics like a prairie fire and seems to be gaining even more momentum in a volatile election year. Here in Kansas, Gov. Sam Brownback is making an example of what a Tea Party nation would look like with draconian spending cuts. But he’s not stopping at spending. He has also proposed eliminating income taxes for small businesses and reducing personal income tax to stimulate economic growth – a plan that he hopes will lead to complete elimination of income taxes altogether in Kansas.
