Can a tax increase for California be far behind?

CRedskinsRule · 11-06-2009, 11:57 AM

Since I question the motives of most politicians, that was my first thought when I read about them raising the withholding amounts

It certainly seems like a new way to accomplish the same old plan. Yes this year people will get a refund, but since it has no end date, it seems like the state will simply raise taxes to match what is being taken in, and suddenly no refund the following year. Not to mention that last year the state had to issue vouchers for a while didn't it?

Government has got to learn to restrain itself, somehow...

Hmmm, having to raise taxes to pay for all the failing social programs. Where have I heard that before?

And why all the people who don't want to work move to California. Such a pretty place to be in the $hitter.

that's what you get with a "terminator" running the show. and a Republican to boot

I say we sell California to the Chinese. Maybe throw in Oregon and Washington for half-price.

You know when he first got elected it looked like he had the balls to make the needed changes then he just turned into another politician.

I look at CA as a fine example of what will happen to the entire US if we keep coming up with new and expanding current social programs.

Speak for yourself.

i definitely will not speak for you, Mr. high and mighty. you probably should move out in the woods, as far away from everyone as possible
