A prominent Georgia Republican says it may be time to reconsider the state's sales tax structure. State Sen. Jack Hill, said Thursday Georgia's sluggish sales tax receipts suggest that the state's system does not reflect how residents spend their money. He said the timing is right for a commission to give it a look. Hill says sales tax collections aren't keeping track with rapid growth in the state. In the last fiscal year, they were down 2.3 percent from the year before.
