REGARDING:
” We need to get rid of the 1/2 % tax for the sheriffs dept”

The half cent is for the schools.

Lower property values yields lower property taxes.

Less income yields less money to spend, lower sales taxes.

The poorest county in Florida is Hamilton county, not Escambia.

Yes, but Escambia County is the poorest in Florida. Seems like we are paying our fair share.

7!/2% sales tax is not low. We need to get rid of the 1/2 % tax for the sheriffs dept. They have enough toys
