Fischer Outlines Pensions Tax Plan and Tax Reforms

A brief, unannounced talk by Fischer argues old age pensions funded by taxing oil and natural resources, shifting burden from Texans to out of state and foreign buyers. He proposes $15 monthly pensions for all over 66, a broad levy shift, higher teacher salaries, better highways, and halving the four cent gasoline tax to save money for automobile owners. A small audience heard the speech, followed by a note on birds.
