## Resource

Missouri’s bold push to scrap its income tax in favor of sales and use taxes is sparking fierce debate—promising economic freedom for businesses but raising alarms that everyday families could end up paying more through higher prices. Supporters say it’ll fuel growth and innovation, while critics warn it could shift the tax burden unfairly and give lawmakers unchecked power to hike taxes without public oversight. The plan even ties income tax elimination to future revenue growth, making this more than just a tax change—it’s a potential overhaul of how the state funds its future.
