But let's not forget the British Empire and its horrible dehumanization of the Irish. This country did not enslave black people. The United States paid for slaves' freedom with many thousands of lives. Just before the last election, Gov. Bill Graves pushed through a big tax cut. This session, he has supported raising taxes because the state is going broke.
Graves has it backward.
Taxpayers aren't here for his benefit. He's in Topeka for our benefit. We don't want increased taxes. KGE has no reason to ask for a rate increase. Its rates are already too high right now.
