Zach Lahn will create a program that allows every kid who graduates from an Iowa high school to invest their income taxes into an account that can be used on a down payment for their first home: "It sends a message that Iowa wants you to stay."

We’re supposed to believe the guy who thinks there are multiple definitions of what a town hall is? Give me a break.

Less than two weeks ago, Lahn announced those Iowa high school grads wouldn't have to pay income taxes at all. Does anyone in the campaign every write down the stuff he says?

Just what we need, more government. Why not talk about eliminating property taxes?

Average Iowa public-university grad pay is about $60K by year 5. That’s ~$1,670/yr in state tax, or ~$9,900 invested at 7%. can almost do half a down payment....lol

Wichita Lahn is only going to do what the Kansas Koch’s allow him to do. They are the ones trying to buy the governorship!

So who pays more in taxes to cover the loss of revenue? How much would it cost to administer annually. Unfairly prejudices home schooled students as well. Also presents as an unfair market advantage to other home buyers.

Quick question: Where can people transfer from the Lahm Train to the Trump Train, or vice versa? Or are they just the same train?

If Iowa law required that lenders consider several years of ontime rent payments as sufficient evidence of income and tax the hell out of vacant single-family properties to subsidize First Time mortgages, then we'd be doin somethin. What the hell is 3% income tax saving doing?

lol - yeah, right. Grasping at straws. Total desperation to find ANYTHING that people might actually believe. Believe THIS: everything Lahn says is bullshit. He doesn't have the first clue how to do anything he's claiming he'll do. Nothing he says is true. Just a bad candidate.

Hey dipshit...there are already programs that do that now if you weren't in Kansas the majority of the time maybe you would have heard of it...FTHSA (first time home buyers saving account) ..parents and grandparents can open an account...you get tax free interest and deductions

I love how we need to bribe people to stay now. I remember when it was just cool to live here.

No, having a healthy economy with great jobs and a friendly culture sends the message Iowa wants you to stay. That's the opposite of what Reynolds and her @IowaGOP goons have done to Iowa. You gave us crappy, low-wage jobs and a culture of hate.
