Star Locke is a longshot candidate for the Republican nomination for the governorship in Texas. This cowboy aims to kill property tax by taxing on 3 things he find undesirable instead:
- $10,000 per abortion tax on medical clinics
- 10% tax on sodas with sugar
- 50% tax on violent video games
“I take the position that the Founding Fathers took: that the power to tax is the power to destroy,” he said. “So our concept is that we need to tax things we don’t want and you want to not tax things that you want to encourage.”
Where’s the bandwagon? Sure sounds like a killer plan to me… 
Man… Are all Texan politicians just nuts wearing spurs & donning cowboy hats?
