Leftist leaders destroy economies.
They aren’t just killing the golden goose, they are fricasseeing it!.....................
Good luck pushing that swill into other states. Cali should by now realize that if they can do it, other states can do it also. Now that would be interesting. Make it retroactive back to, say, The northern state citizens moving over to cali in droves and then the northern states can go after those who made their fortune IN cali. Popcorn sales would go through the roof. “Careful what you ask for...you might get it” applies.
CA has been doing this for at least decades. I married my wife in the ‘70s. She had worked in CA for a bit, before she left the state mid-year, and moved to Michigan where we were married. She earned too little in CA to owe taxes and expected a refund of the amount withheld there.
However, we filed a joint federal return. The CA return required that we also file a joint CA return. In filling that out, CA required that we include ALL of my Michigan income to the bit that she earned in CA and pay CA taxes on it. We were allowed to deduct the amount paid to MI, which was much lower than the CA amount.
In other words, I was required to pay the higher part of California taxes on all of the money I earned only in Michigan.
If I recall correctly, California tried something similar awhile back. Let’s say you once lived in California. But now you live elsewhere. CA went to a branch of your bank in CA, and got them to freeze your account until you paid your supposed CA taxes. Nasty stuff. Some court struck the whole thing down.
But hey, California. If at first you don’t succeed, try try and try again.
“I believe we should tax all foreigners living abroad”
Even people of moderate wealth who still live in CA are just cattle waiting to be slaughtered.
Time to moooooooove is now!
“Assemblyman Alex Lee, a progressive Democrat...”
We must refrain from being passive in our writing and use the same type of terminology the leftists use against us. To do otherwise is to give the competition a head start in the race for thoughts, ideas and ultimately, the resulting conclusions.
Corrected for emphasis;
“Assemblyman Alex Lee, a radical leftist Democrat...”
“Progressive” implies they are for “progress”. They are not.
In debate, whoever defines the terms controls the narrative.
In another view, a false premise leads to false conclusions. If the alleged premise remains to stand uncorrected, that they are for “progress”, then any other viewpoint is, by their definition defaulted to “anti-progress”. Implied in this is “archaic, old fashioned, behind the times, or Neanderthal”.
“Gay” behavior is not “happy”, it is correctly defined as homosexuality. Do not let your opponent define the narrative. Ever.
Stop it AT. Define the terms correctly, or your argument is weakened in complicity.
...that is all
WELCOME TO THE HOTEL CALIFORNIA!
You can check out anytime you like, but you can NEVER LEAVE !
Must report to California Franchise Board
Right
Let me guess how many people, actually will report themselves .......
I don't see how CA is going to actually get their hands on the money, let alone know who owns stuff.
