Privatize? Localize? From Democrats?

Democrats in the Georgia House of Representatives today introduced HB 356, a revenue bill designed to put additional funds into the state's shrinking coffers by streamlining government and improving the sales tax collection process. The bill transfers control over collecting sales taxes from the state Department of Revenue to local governments, allowing them to contract with
private firms. Similar plans have been tried in other states, notably Alabama, which saw a revenue increase of over $1 billion.

I'm just don't know what to say.
