Utah is awash in extra tax funds, but last year and this year every entity is raising taxes. Cities get a windfall on utility taxes but still raise taxes. House values are being raised in the 40 percent range, which is another windfall. The Utah Transit Authority raised bus fares a few years ago because it lost federal money, but did it say it got three to four times more as a result in sales tax funds?

As people of Utah, we need to put an end to these constant tax increases.
