That’s nothing. In Chicago it’s 9.75% and has been that way!

Our sales tax in CA also went up recently.  I agree wholeheartedly with your thoughts.  I wish the government would get their hands out of this recession and let the market take care of itself.

This is just such a bad time for them to place a tax on clothing…. would be better if they focused on other “vices” .
