I guess this is good news, but what now? This topic has been gaining traction lately. So after this council vote, what is next? Is a referendum also required? When shall we realistically expect to be able to file individual taxes even for married couples?

  1. Who will be negatively impacted? Low income single revenue families (it is a question, i don’t know)?

    Or any single income families?

  2. GYN-k4H-Q3z-75B on

    News is a few days old.

    Finally. I have donated to this cause repeatedly over the years, and I am disappointed that this does not have broad spectrum support. As usual, SVP is against everything, no surprise there. But a particular “fuck you” goes to the Center. They are the most useless and stupid bunch of all. I’d rather elect a commie or SVP. At least then you know what you’re getting.

    Marriage needs to arrive in the 21st century. Individual taxation should have been a fact for decades.
