Cook County Commissioner Tony Peraica is leading the charge to get rid of the one percent sales tax increase throughout the county. There are apparently seven commissioners on board in total, but nine are needed to repeal the hike. Do you think this will happen? And am I the only one wondering how in the world could this get voted for and then voted back down. Are taxpayers getting their message through to lawmakers? If so, should we all be paying attention to the power we have as agents of change? There has been outrage over the hike, but not a full taxpayer revolt. It seems some are listening, so this would be the time to have your voices heard by the people making the decisions for you.
