• They voted for a "snow-bird tax" on people who earned money in Minnesota in the middle of the year and go somewhere warmer at the end of the year.
• They voted to keep the "Granny Tax" on many seniors in nursing homes.
• They broke their 2006 promises and watched property taxes grow even higher.
• They almost doubled the "mutual fund tax" that hits many seniors most heavily.
• They continued the "sick tax" on every visit to a doctor, hospital, clinic, or pharmacy.
• They voted to create a "gift tax" that would fall most heavily on seniors.
• They voted to minimize new funding for nursing home workers, while boosting welfare spending by budget-busting rates.
