The first step in giving  Indiana citizens the right to determine how much property taxes will be paid in the state begins on Tuesday.    The Indiana House of Representative is voting on a cap of one percent of the assessed value for homeowners, two percent of the assessed value for investors, and three percent of the assessed value for business owners.    This vote is essential because if approved it will go to the Indiana Senate, and then to the public for a vote in 2010 to make it a permanent change to the state constitution.

With the approval of this groundbreaking measure, the residents will final be able to make local cities, towns, and municipalities responsible for wreckless spending that has been going on for decades.  No longer will there be endless amount of money on the back of the citizens of the state.
