For each of the last five years, California has led the nation in the outflow of its residents to other states. Since 2004, California has lost about a million and a half people from taxpaying households.

Yes and they move to other states and vote for the same tax and spend policy they fled in California. Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine have suffered similarly from the influx of Massachusetts and NYC residents who move here and vote to impose confiscatory taxes and disabling regulations.

“...the 7.65% Social Security and Medicare tax ceiling will be lifted from $102,000 to $150,000 or so.”

The Social Security tax is 6.2% on a maximum of $106,800.

The Medicare tax is 1.45% and there is no ceiling.

Just to get the details straight.

You live in liberal land. They will never learn. The only cure for liberalism to a liberal is more liberalism. The peanut mind of a liberal can never grasp the fact that liberalism is the problem. Do not hope for change.

Obama knows who votes for him and who does not.

He will tax the red states to pay for the blue.
Tax the suburbs to pay for the ghettos.

What we should do, is what HL Mencken suggested long ago.
Remove unemployed suffrage.

Welfare recipients, and those who do not contribute to the economy, should not be permitted to vote. Taxpayers and property owners only.
