Eyman's Next Initiative Takes On "Property Tax Crisis"

Via Political Buzz, we learn that the Initiative King's 2009 run will target property taxes in what he says is "our last, best chance to gain control of our government." From his preliminary press release, it sounds like the plan is to put a revenue cap on the state government and use any revenue above that cap to magically lower property taxes. Eyman is claiming his initiative will provide tax relief for poor people, slow the growth of government, stimulate the economy, bring sight to the blind, and restore life to all dead puppies in the year 2009. Guess we'll see about that.

    Eyman's next initiative isn't about property taxes. The property tax "rebate" is just a gimmick Eyman threw on there so he can say the measure lowers property taxes. That's not what it does. It constrains and squeezes government to the point where is stops working.
