Chattanooga Times Survey Shows Business Support for Tax Reform
. . . . . . . . January 1, 2003 image
"The fact that Tennessee added a penny to its sales tax this year didn't make a dime's worth of difference to top area business officials responding to a Chattanooga Times Free Press survey. Three-quarters of respondents said the state still doesn't have sufficient revenue to take care of its obligations. Fifteen percent said the state has enough money and 10 percent weren't sure. . . . 'Based on not having enough revenue, youÔd almost have to say (itÔs necessary to) overhaul the structure to get what we need,' . . ."

- from "Business Leaders Say State Needs Tax Reform, More Money," by Bob Gary Jr., Staff Writer; Chattanooga Times Free Press; January 01, 2003
