why is food taxed? Anything purchased at a grocer should be tax exempt, with the exception of alcohol.

I think the average American does not know enough about economic to make that type of decision, and because of that they will mostly favor a taxes that they like. government should decide but take into consideration popular opinions.

No, this should be a local decision because local sales taxes should be determined locally based on the characteristics of the community taking into consideration issue such as % paid by tourists, community income levels and funding needs for basic community services.

No, local governments are best equipped to understand and address their communities specific needs, but capping the tax on groceries would help lower the cost of living for all Arizonans, especially low- and middle-income families who are disproportionately affected by sales taxes on food.

No, the state should regulate its own taxes according to jurisdiction and authority, and if the state wants to cap attack on the State or within the states authority ensure

Cap taxes at 1 percent or get rid of them there's better ways of achieving money.

Yes, with caution. Groceries should be made affordable, but many luxury foods or other nonessential items that could possibly fit under the label would effectively get a tax break for no reason.

If the people want to raise it or lower it, they decide, the people.

Yes, Groceries are a basic necessity, so keeping taxes low helps people afford everyday items. Letting voters decide on increases also gives people more control.
