Georgia should phase out its state income tax.

Georgia has cut its flat income tax rate in recent years, and the income tax is still the largest source of state revenue. Phasing it out would require other taxes or spending cuts to make up the difference.

Republicans have controlled the state government for nearly 30 years and are solely responsible for the shortfalls the state is facing. Before asking Georgians to sacrifice more, I think it is time to take a hard look at how government is spending money.
