Stupid Republican Gimmicks In the Iowa Legislature

My god, could they get any dumber?

Jeff Lamberti, a Republican from Ankeny, wants to eliminate any state income tax on those under the age of 30. Average savings will be around $600 and cost the state about $200 million in revenue.

This is a joke, right? How frickin' stupid can you get? That's not going to stop the brain drain! How much is $600 going to matter when you can make low $80s as a pharmacist in Sioux City or mid $90s in Minneapolis?

UPDATE: Joe @ Roth CPA has more on Lamberti's crazy idea.
