Minnesotans said they’d like wealthier taxpayers to shoulder the burden....." Let's see. I want the guy who paid for most of my benefits / quality of life in MN so far to "shoulder" the burden. I don't want to pay food and clothing tax. Nor do I want my property tax to go up, install a mileage tax, etc because I “can’t afford it”. Those rich people won’t leave the state with their businesses. Just kick up their rates till they bleed because obviously they didn’t get rich from working hard, they must have got all their money from us.
