NY Tea Party: Tax Protest

Some inspiration for us highly-taxed Illinoisans. Even blue state NY is fed up. Watch: More here:

Paterson wants to enact 134 new or expanded taxes and fees that would dig deeper into New Yorkers' pocketbooks to raise additional revenue in a state where taxpayers are already burdened with some of the highest taxes in the country.

The protesters have the support of a majority of New Yorkers, at least according the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.

By a 53 percent to 36 percent margin, voters would rather cut services than raise taxes, a recent survey showed.
