Zoneton Fire Protection District - Taxes

Taxes

Taxes came into play in the 1960s, but still were not enough to provide adequate services to the small community of fewer than 5,000 people. Fundraisers were still needed until the late 1970s when the population boomed. The county's population nearly doubled between 1970 and 1980 along with the Zoneton community.

Famous quotes containing the word taxes:

    ...if I were to be murdered I would not want my murderer executed. I would not want my death avenged. Especially by government—which can’t be trusted to control its own bureaucrats or collect taxes equitably or fill a pothole, much less decide which of its citizens to kill.
    Helen Prejean (b. 1940)

    I thought that’s what this war was about. Making people pay taxes when they didn’t have no say so about it.
    Lamar Trotti (1898–1952)

    Note, besides, that it is no more immoral to directly rob citizens than to slip indirect taxes into the price of goods that they cannot do without.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
