DANVILLE - Vermilion County faces a levy rate increase as it prepares for the 2005 fiscal year.

What further income-tax cuts, if any, do you support?
Bush: "I will make tax reform a key priority in my second term. In my first three years in office, I signed historic and comprehensive tax relief that has reduced the marriage penalty, doubled the child tax credit to $1,000, reduced rates across the board, and eliminated the death tax. This relief has reduced the tax burden for 111 million Americans, including 43 million families in 2004. We also quadrupled the amount small businesses can expense to $100,000 in investment each year."

But here and across the Gulf, some are calling for more imaginative uses of the new oil riches that cropped up this year after fears of terrorist attacks in the United States, disruptions to Iraqi crude exports and uncertainty over the fate of troubled Russian oil giant Yukos sent crude prices close to US$50 (S$84.90) a barrel this summer."
