RECORD-HIGH 60% OF CALIFORNIANS SAY THEY PAY TOO MUCH TAX
Breitbart ^ | 4/13/2014 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Ahead of the April 15 tax deadline, a record-high 60% of Californians say that they pay "much more" or "somewhat more" in taxes than they should, according to a recent survey by the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) (and noted by John Seiler of Calwatchdog.org and Stephen Frank of CApoliticalnews.com).

However, as PPIC Mark Baldassare notes at Fox&Hounds, Californians still believe that the answer is to tax wealthy earners or corporations more--not to reform and broaden the current tax system.

The PPIC survey, which was conducted in March among 1,702 adults, notes:

While about half of Californians view the state and local tax system as fair, a record-high 60 percent of adults say they pay much more (30%) or somewhat more (30%) than they feel they should in state and local taxes; 35 percent think they pay about the right amount and 3 percent say they pay less than they should. Opinions of likely voters are similar.

“Republicans will hold their representatives accountable.”

Like McCain and Graham! I think it isjust the reverse it is the Dems that punish failure to follow orthodoxy. We are the ones who let our party get away with murder.

,,,,,, so what you’re sayin’ is ,,,,, 40% of Californian’s are totally brain dead . No surprise . Did you ever notice there is always a constant 28 to 30% positive response to any liberal poll no matter how disgusting or unconstitutional the question is . I believe most of these folks are pure commies .
