Male Voice 1: Castle report number one: Delaware taxes cut. Mike Castle wants to continue the tradition of lower taxes and more jobs for all Delawareans.

00:00:10.050 - 00:00:17.010

Male Voice 2: Actually there were three tax cuts this year and you won't feel them until January first. But they cut the personal income tax

00:00:17.010 - 00:00:22.380

by 10 percent and they increase the exemption by two hundred dollars for each exemption you have. For instance, if you have

00:00:22.380 - 00:00:29.520

a wife and two children, you'll have four more exemptions, or eight hundred dollars more in exemptions. And if you're earning ten thousand dollars per year,

00:00:29.520 - 00:00:36.600

that comes out to about nineteen percent total reduction on your state of Delaware income taxes. If you're at twenty thousand dollars, it's something like 12 or

00:00:36.600 - 00:00:45.260

13 percent, If you're at fifty thousand dollars, it gets down around 11 percent. That's a pretty good situation in terms of taxation. And that's because the economy here has done well.
