Why didn't the city increase land, property or sales taxes? Did they just want to pick a big, popular target?

- Lazare 7y agoWell yeah. Or probably even more importantly, a tax that most people wouldn't be paying. Efficient taxes tend to 1) be broad based and 2) be very hard to avoid by changing behaviour. And that means they will impact a lot of voters, and voters don't like paying taxes. :)
