Amendment 60 lowers real estate property taxes and provides
for a 10-year “sunset” for all future real estate property tax increases. All affected items phase in gradually to minimize revenue impacts. Restores compliance of all real estate property taxes, reversing where necessary, with the Tax Payer Bill of Rights (“TABOR”) limits. Many real
estate property taxes are at high, unconstitutional, levels.

State and local Governments already collect monstrous taxes
from We The People, and in addition these governments have run all their “credit cards” (loans) up to the max to boot – AND THEY STILL WANT MORE. Amendment 61 takes away the “credit cards” and forces government to live within its actual revenue stream, on a more or less cash basis. What’s wrong with that?

Proposition 101 is a bird to fly up the noses of those politicians who thought they could get around TABOR by re-labeling taxes as “fees.” On the less ideological side, a $10,000 price-exclusion provided by 101 on the calculation of sales tax on automobiles will be a real boon to everyone, and will create REAL jobs by stimulating auto sales. YES WE CAN.

For ALL three 60, 61 and 101, many government jobs will be lost, and good riddance. All these folks need to wake up, update their resumes, and get ready to find a job in the real world like the rest of us. For every government job lost I believe TWO NEW JOBS WILL BE CREATED in the private sector. The tax money saved by 60, 61 and 101 will be returned to the People where it can be used to create REAL jobs.

As usual, the government entities are threatening to fire the teachers, release the prisoners, and let the bridges fall down if these pass. There is plenty of tax money, even AFTER 60, 61, & 101, for teachers, prisons, and bridges if there were fewer feel-good social programs and other porkulus projects.
