ON THE STREET

The Southeast Missourian asked, "Do you think the April 15th deadline gives taxpayers enough time to file their tax returns?"

Lyn Stoecker, Cape Girardeau

"Well, heck yes they have a whole year. I think it's plenty of time."

Marietta Holmes, Cape Girardeau

"Well, yes, people know taxes are coming up anyway."

Veronica Kirk, Cape Girardeau

"It's plenty. A lot of them procrastinate. No matter what kind of deadline you have there is always going to be a few who put it off. Why put off the inevitable?"

Jami Plouffe, Cape Girardeau

"Yes, that's plenty of time. Three and one half months. That's plenty of time."

Mike Simmons, Cape Girardeau

"Sure. Well, we know it comes up every year. I mean it's not like they arbitrarily decide. It's the same every year, we know it's coming."
