While most people agree that New York needs some serious work when it comes to our infrastructure, there have not been many concrete proposals on how to pay for all of it. But Assemblyman Phil Steck has suggested reinstating a stock transfer sales tax. It is something the state had in place up until 1981, and it would add a tax of a quarter of one percent on the sales of stocks valued at more than $20. Steck says bringing back the tax would help the state raise the necessary revenue to fix our roads, bridges, water lines, and more.
