Wisconsin Tax Flow Mirrors Corporate Revenues to State
Wisconsin residents paid just over 600000 in general taxes this year while the state issued nearly triple that amount back in aid to common and free high schools funded by railroad and corporate taxes. The secretary of state notes large corporate fees from Northwestern and St Paul railroads, with federal old Civil War claims contributing to state revenue. Governor Davidson supported maintaining cash for a new capitol building, while state superintendent announced apportionments around 2166 per child plus annual funds for graded and high schools, county training schools, and teachers. The net effect: citizens receive about 3 dollars back for each dollar paid in taxes, with no need for further general property levies.
