Do you want to help the average Hoosier? No sales tax on utiliy bills! 7% savings right there! At least make the first $100-150, or 200 tax free.
No sales tax on used cars that were originally sold in Indiana; why keep taxing the same car over and over? If someone brings in a car from out-of-state, it only gets taxed the first time it is re-sold within the state.
Limit property tax increases to 1% annually (exceptions only for room additions or garages, pools, etc added to the property) Taxes reset when house is sold. Better yet, do away with property taxes completely. Rely on our flat tax rate and sales tax, but exempt high ticket, necessary items (basic appliances, basic clothing, etc.) . Continue to tax meals, but figure out a way to make certain lower price food items tax free but tax "high end" meals.
Some of these proposals may reduce revenue to the state. Fine, reduce spending by the state; should be easy enough to find wasteful spending in Indiana
