In this video, Tony Pecoraro of the Wake County Taxpayers Association explains some of the hidden problems with the proposed Wake County sales tax increase and the transit plan it will help fund. He explains some of the things proponents of the tax hike haven’t.

He spoke at an event sponsored by Civitas and the WCTA. For more on the issue, click on this “What Matters in North Carolina” show, and start at the 33-minute mark.
