Libertarians? Anarchists? Or just delusional?

Interesting sign at Raymond James Stadium ... and even more interesting that it was shown on the big screen in the stadium no fewer than two times. It read (I'm paraphrasing here):

GO BUCS
NO PROPERTY TAXES
2.5% SALES TAX ONLY


Now, I'm no economic genius, but in a state already decimated fiscally and in serious danger of real economic catastrophe, I don't think eliminating all property taxes and gutting the sales tax (currently 6% plus a local option by county, generally 1/2% or 1%) is going to make things better. Unless, of course, your idea of "better" is Lord of the Flies.

I don't go to football games for politics. Especially absurd politics.

At least the Bucs won ...
