Edit: Hold nose & agree with Hoffman

Three things that make us uncomfortable:

1. Receiving registered mail from the IRS.

2. Getting a panicky phone call from the doctor’s office.

3. Realizing that we agree with Wayne Hoffman.

Hoffman is executive director of the Idaho Freedom Foundation, an organization that too often tars and feathers common sense with the star-spangled confetti of extreme right political ideology. IFF considers Heather Scott one of the finest legislators in Idaho. Need we say more?

Well, yes, we do.

We agree with Hoffman in calling for the Legislature to vigorously debate the pros and cons of eliminating the state’s 6 percent sales tax on groceries/Coeur d'Alene Press Editorial Board. More here.

Question: Should the Idaho Legislature remove the 6% sales tax on groceries?
