When everybody gets used to the lower figure, the state will increase the amount, and when you’re used to that amount, will increase some more.
Other states have used this tactic on sales tax increases. Instead of increasing the full amount of wanted tax at once, increased a penny at a time. That way it didn’t look like such a large increase. Don’t be fooled. We will be hit with the full amount in a few years.
