Stephen Farnsworth, professor of political science at the University of Mary Washington, told the Washington Examiner there are some benefits being passed as well, and the higher taxes are needed to fund these.
“While businesses are concerned about some of the challenges that may be part of higher taxes that they may be facing,” Farnsworth said. “They’re also going to be some tax benefits and tax breaks for people in other positions. It’s going to be easier, for example, to build a house in Virginia.”
