Stupid is as stupid votes.
No taxation without... oh wait.
The messed up part is that rather than electing politcians who will lower taxes in California, they will move to low tax states and then try to raise the taxes there.
The rest of the country is tired of subsidizing reckless spending at the state level with federal tax breaks.
Democracy!
Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result each time................
Sadly though a lot of them are social justice ‘warriors’ who think that their high taxes are necessary to ‘offset climate change’ and to give ‘reparations’ to black folks- They just don’t like that THEY have to be the ones that must pay it-
Have a relative who lives there and is fine with paying through the nose- but then she turns around and begs for money- when she wants to travel, or go to beauty salons- always crying poverty- mention to her that her liberal socialist state is draining her financially, and you get a liberal lecture from her- usually screaming-
You can’t reason with liberals-
Of course they think their taxes are too high. But they think it’s because a couple of dozen very rich people and the big corporations aren’t paying their fair share.
I would laugh but California is a very large part of our economy and the future of every American is tied more to this single state than any other.
California is a trainwreck. One party rule and a healthy does of the “good idea fairy” is proving to be a disaster and as they crater their state economy the US economy will follow close behind.
You cannot dispute the math even as many of us (me included) have some feelings of Schadenfreude”. The same can be said on a smaller scale for New York and Illinois.
We may not like their politics but these are important economic engines for the nation and we can only pray that Texas and Florida provide the example for voters although I am uncertain if its not too late in the deep blue states.
I have no faith in the integrity of California elections. Granted that demographics are stacked against you… So many times I’d think we were going to do really well this time only to get in line, look around me at the others in line, and go “crap!”. We are so doomed.
Still, even years ago ballot harvesting was common, and signing up non-citizens was common. And it has only got worse. So I don’t think you can believe any vote count in California. The state has been hijacked, and who is going to investigate it? Newsom?
What did they expect from the loons they elect?!
Everyone relax, no EnviroNazis, Animal Rights Nazis, HomoNazis, TrannyNazis, MediaNazis, Social Media Nazis, ObamacareNazis, Union Boss Nazis, DemoKKKrats, RINOs or Negros were harmed in the making of this collapse.
Some of those who say taxes are too high are probably single issue voters, like the LGBTQXYZ’s. They prioritize their single issue over everything else, e.g. taxes, crime, economy, cost of living, freedom.
And even so, they will still vote for the Democrat, because they are herd animals and follow the pack.
So they’ll vote Maxine Waters for governor.
Then they’re going to love paying reparations.
I think they are mostly one issue voters and they dont want to be part of the racist republicans. I know many libs in the state that vote for all the gay and lesbo stuff and ignore everything else. They all complain when they have to pay taxes but wont vote Republican because they’re bad people.
Q: Did the nation vote for BiteMe...?
California went to all mail-in for the recall for a reason...
