An effort by House Republicans to overhaul the state's tax laws seeks to eliminate all property taxes in favor of a more expanded sales, use, and services tax at a rate approximately the same, 4 percent. Would you support such a drastic change in the state's tax structure? Why or why not?

"Yes, I would support it because it sounds like they are going towards the fair tax and I'm very much in favor of the fair tax." HENRY ANDERSON Retired "No, I had rather it stay the way it is." ANNETTE PARSONS Billing specialist "Yes, I would support the change because everyone has to pay sales tax and only property owners pay for property tax." ELAINA WOODS Student "Yes, I would support it because it's becoming one of your higher taxes for local business people and farm owners in Wilkes County today." HERBERT W. BAILEY Retired
