Let's put the wealth of the state as a whole on the table. Let's put every conceivable source of revenue on the table and forge a plan where every person in Texas pays their fair share.
I say we put everything on the table first and then see what revenue streams we need. If an income tax is part of the new formula, then we put it before the people. People in this state often vote to tax themselves, through school bonds, so we should put it before them.
