so its NOT about using less gas...its not about carbon and its not about globull warming...

its about more money so we can pay govt workers and their private business partners tons more in wages and benefits....

arses....I will not visit Cali ever if this passes...

and now that the feds might be removing all deductions, we can't even work out a plan to deduct all these gas taxes as work related....

this is ultimately not fair for those of us who have to actually go into our job sites and work....(but I'm not in Cali)

When we moved from Texas to LA back in 1994 my wife went to get car license and she was given the choice of having a smog device on her car or paying a fee. The local behind her was pissed! He didn’t get a choice. And I guess that’s the first time he realized it wasn’t about smog. It was all about money.

My employer requires me to record the zipcode where I'm working. Most of the time that is in my state of residence, Idaho. When I'm called to California or Nebraska, the payroll subcontractor ADP tracks my hours in the other zipcodes. The net consequence is a business trip out of state can generate enough income to force having to file a state income tax return. The Nebraska trips just met the limit to force a filing. The tax was refunded 100%, but the cost of the TurboTax state edition to support the Nebraska filing exceeded the tax refunded. My boss wants a monthly visit to San Diego. I held the line at 2 visits in 2017. Still enough to force an income tax filing in CA. I would only be driving a rental car in CA. My personal vehicles won't be going there again.

I hope my daughter understands why we don't visit.

CA is the first syllable in CACA!

“Stoopid peeple,” settle in the “Coastal Desert,” LA, and wonder why they have no rain, yet fires, mudslides, and earthquakes. SOMEONE is telling them that they made a big mistake. I just can't bring myself to pity them.
