The problem with killing the rich and taking their stuff is you can only do it once.

And Jerry Brown’s solution to this is to raise taxes on business and high earners. You can shear a sheep many times but you can only skin it once.

and all they seem to be focused on locally is eliminating one time use plastic bags from businesses. Go figure. Delusional isn’t even the word anymore. Not strong enough for the mental illness of these California politicians and those that continue to vote them in.

Alcohol and cigarettes are up. Death is way up. So is insurance, but that’s probably from people who want to torch their businesses.

Penalizing the productive, and rewarding the non-productive, is a central tenet and practice of Socialism.

Even when the disastrous effects of this practice are right in front of their eyes, liberals refuse to accept the truth of that destruction, and insist upon solving those ill effects by penalizing the productive even more.

And as long as there’s water in the taps, and the street lights keep working, they’ll continue to double down on their suicidal solutions. It’s going to take a complete breakdown of the entire system before the people throw that cult out of power.

The absolutely striking thing in the table is the “Vehicle License Fees”......the most telling of all....no one moving there, everybody and his brother (who isn’t illegal or DEM) leaving.....marvelous!

Californian’s are counting on a bail-out. I don’t think the rest of the country is down for it.

But I can imagine the media onslaught. I’m going to have to turn off the telly.

They need to raise taxes to fill the gap.

That will drive more businesses out.

Then they'll need to raise taxes to fill that gap.

That will drive yet more businesses out.

Then they'll need...

As the productive taxpayers leave in droves the state of Kalipornia is replacing them with illegal aliens on welfare.

I am sure that will work out.

California will be our Greece. If the DNC controls the White House the taxpayers will eat it. If the GOP controls the White House the proposed bailout will be one of the most heated battles we have witnessed. If the current GOP leadership is still in place the taxpayers will eat it again. Their congressional delegation is that powerful.

Entitlements, state salaries, and public pensions will eventually crush the state economy. The rats in California will continue to strangle producers with high taxes and Texas, Nevada, and Arizona will gain productive companies and people and state revenues will continue to decrease as budgets increase.

The danger to the rest of the nation is the massive size of California’s budget.

That is my .02

Businesses are leaving in greater numbers than companies that no longer advertise on Rush.
