RGF op-ed argues that Otero County Residents Should Oppose Spaceport Tax
Otero County residents are voting on whether or not to increase the County gross receipts tax rate in order to build the spaceport hundreds of miles away near Truth or Consequences. I argued recently in the Alamogordo Daily News that voters should be wary about voting for higher taxes due to the unique nature of the gross receipts tax and the fact that this particular tax hike will be far more costly than 1/8th cent.
