When a group of citizens who don't pay taxes vote to raise taxes on the few who actually do pay taxes.....Well, Houston we have a problem. There's only so much tax payers will take even the liberal ones.

I thought all of those rich democRATS wanted higher taxes.
So what’s the big deal?

No problem, just print more money. Oh wait; states can’t do that.

“The states wealthiest 1 percent, for instance, pay 48 percent of [California’s] income tax...”

Sales tax higher than other states
Income tax higher than other states.
Minimum wage is higher than other states.
Sanctuary cities reward murder with a free pass.
Jerry Brown is the states official nut.
Gee what can go wrong.

write off their state taxes on their federal returns as a charitable deduction If the charitable contribution is mandatory, it is not a charitable contribution. If it is not mandatory, very few people (even in CA) will do it.

I have never seen such insulting comments in any SacBee article. They make Freepers look like GOPe.
To: RightGeek
California should just pass a law that prohibits people from moving out of the state.
Or make them sign a contract that they will continue to pay California taxes.

States give incentives for companies to move, how about individuals?

The states wealthiest 1 percent, for instance, pay 48 percent of its income tax, and the departure of just a few families could lead to a noticeable hit to state general fund revenue.

My kids are begging me to chose another state! My oldest just bought a new house, but my youngest refuses to...he want’s out right now and both can go elsewhere and make a good living.
I don’t know what I’m going to do!

One of the comments in the SacBee article suggested going after rich folks that try to leave Kalifornia. Governor Grey Davis tried to do just that and a Judge through it out of court, stating, in essence ‘I don’t think so!’
