Rocky Adkins on Tax Reform

 

 


Consumption taxes are unfair to lower income people

Q: Do you support Kentucky eliminating the income tax and going to a more consumption-tax based model?

A: Rocky and his running mate Stephanie believe that a tax system based solely on consumption taxes is unfair to lower income populations and is not the answer to a revenue problem. Kentucky must stop balancing its checkbook on the backs of working families. They will look at ways to generate revenue through medical marijuana, hemp, and growing new industries like the aerospace industry.
