This tax is the gateway drug for increasing taxes on everyone over time. The state can never have enough money. How else would they vote themselves pay raises?

Conspiracy theories are so cool aren't they? Don't need to provide evidence. Can make any claim you want. Truly encapsulates the current political climate.

Look at the history of taxation. The state and feds always want more of our money.

Meanwhile we get very little results with a bloated government payroll.

Sure Some taxes are necessary but not all of the taxes.

Also look at New York and New Jersey, a lot of the very large income earners left the state. Many moved their headquarters. If you don’t think this will be an unintended consequence in this state, then you are delusional.

There have been tax cuts before.

What specifically on the payroll bothers you. Goverment workers are paid less then private sector workers.

Yet they still have strong economies. New York is still the financial center of the US.
