During inflationary times, salaries that were raised merely to keep up with inflation &mdash; meaning no real income increase for the worker &mdash; forced people into higher tax brackets. Government got more taxes because of this inflation; taxpayers had smaller spending power. Howard Jarvis' Proposition 7 changed that. Proposition 7 allowed the tax brackets to increase with inflation so that taxpayers would be no worse off if they received a raise to match inflation. <span class='read-more'><a href="http://www.hjta.org/propositions/proposition-7/other-taxpayer-propositions" target="_blank"><strong>&nbsp;Read&nbsp;more&nbsp;>></strong></a></span></p> Proposition 7 Proposition 62 Howard Jarvis Proposition 62 Proposition 7 Tue, 18 Apr 2006 19:58:31 +0000 jmonma 46 at http://www.hjta.org
