PROGRESSIVE PAVILION

Listen to the Kansas Progressive Caucus meeting and a presentation on what are the issues Kansans are discussing.  The audio comes from the Aug. 22, 2015 "Progressive Pavilion" held during the Kansas Democratic Party's annual Wichita Demofest.  

What's the matter with Kansas? "The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy recently reported that Kansas has the ninth-most unfair tax system in the county.  A Kansan earning $47,700 a year pays 9.5 percent of income in state and local taxes; but someone earning $1,191,700 pays an effective rate of just 3.6 percent."

So much for the 'trickle down' libertarian economic theories masterminded by the Wichita plutocrats Charles & David Koch; and implemented by Gov. Sam Brownback and his cronies in the state legislature.
