yup yup yup...

i remembering seeing a news report once... the bay bridge people (you know.. the ones who collect toll...) had a table in their basement, and it was just a pile of cash that no one knew where it came from, how much, etc...

someone just placed a pile on a table and left it there...

For $1000

8.25% old tax = $82.50
9.25% new tax = $92.50

It will be at least $10.00 more you would have to pay.

It gets worse if you buy something more expensive as you can tell. Let say you buy a new STI for $35,000.

8.25% old tax = $2887.50
9.25% new tax = $3237.50

That will be $350 more. With that money you can change engine oil many many times, buy nice gauge, nice swaybars, nice endlinks, full tanks of gas, or ________. (fill in the blank)
