Bob Weeks at Wichita Liberty has an excellent explanation of Proposition K and its potential effects on property values and tax rates. The post is in response to a con editorial in the Wichita Eagle, “Tax Plan Would Shift Burden, Be Arbitrary.” The Eagle also featured a guest column in favor of Prop K, “Proposition K is Fair, Equal, Transparent.”
Weeks expertly dissects arguments opposing Prop K, showing the lack of logic behind each one. As you read both Wichita Eagle columns and Week’s post, keep in mind our current system and ask yourself which you would prefer.
Also, note which side is attempting to solve the property taxation problem and which is simply trying to find excuses to keep the old system in place.
