Nutshell: This scumbag author wants more taxes, more redistribution of income, more socialism.

Meanwhile, those same young people, whose education represents the soundest possible investment for the future, and thus a proper purpose for borrowing, will get shortchanged again...Give me a break! How many BILLION dollar measures have been passed for "education" over the past few years?

"California voters will approve Proposition 57, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's $15 billion deficit bond, and reject Proposition 55, the $12.3 billion school construction and repair bond that appears on the same ballot."

As it should be, sounds good to me!

and increases to 10 percent in the marginal income tax rates for individuals and couples making over $140,000 and $280,000 a year respectively and 11 percent for individuals earning over $280,000 a year and couples with incomes exceeding $560,000.I'd prefer an increase to 95% for movie producers having the last name of 'Speilberg'.

The governor keeps talking nostalgically about the wonderful days, back in 1968, when he first arrived here as an immigrant. But those wonderful days were generated by leaders - and by a people - who were optimistic about the future, welcomed it and planned for it.What's interesting is that in those days, we were able to build schools and highways on a budget that would be about 50% lower than today's in present dollars. Now we're paying significantly more of a percentage of Gross State Product in taxes and we aren't building squat. Instead, all of our money is going to education and social services. So how come we could provide vital services AND still build our infrastructure, all on a smaller tax base, back in those days? I never hear any of the "let's raise taxes" crowd answering that question.

The Bee is a rag, not a real paper. Although we deserve better, that is what we are stuck with. This is a one paper town and we are stuck with it.
It is a liberal borderline communist paper.
