Arizona's Tax Hike begins tomorrow.

Tomorrow on June 1, 2010 the State of Arizona enacts a 1% tax increase that was passed by the voters 2 weeks ago. I realize that this money is supposed to go towards schools and public safety but you can't help wonder if this is the best idea in the middle of a very bad recession. I guess it doesn't matter since it's going to happen. 1% doesn't seem like much but on big ticket items it can add up rather quickly. I am a Libertarian and for the most part against most tax increases but for the most part I support this one as long as the money goes where its supposed to and doesn't get pissed away by the state on other programs.
