Tax hits little fellow in clear lake campaign talk
CLEAR LAKE Oct 17 E A Ruden republican candidate for state auditor told a campaign gathering that the gross income tax favors large land and property owners and hurts the average home owner with a $1200 salary paying about $50 in taxes. He cited South Dakota total taxes near 26 million dollars, noting the tax covers about eight percent of the total and would levy $43 for the same home under other levies. He argued the reform would reduce the tax burden on the average worker while manufacturers and retailers pass costs through to consumers. The talk criticized the republican tax program as unfair and shifting burden away from big owners.
