On November 4th, all of America will be getting off of their sofas and into their SUVs and hybrids and driving to their nearest voting center to place a vote for the President of the United States.
But at the same time, Massachusetts residents will be placing a vote on an issue of their own brought to the ballot by an initiative (this is a petition): Question 1, to eliminate State income tax.
The proposal states that the income tax would be reduced for everyone to 2.65% by January 1st, 2009 and eliminated entirely by January 1st, 2010.
