ScwartzenKennedy has been a colossal failure of epic magnitude. Looks like style now wins over substance in the once great state of California. I only hope that I can get out before the inevitable train wreck. Just yesterday, Oregon (or was it Washington?) rejected a tax on “property transfers”. Wanna bet against we Californians having this rammed up our asses next year?

this is what the police, the firemen, the teachers, the bus drivers, the jail keepers, the probation officiers, etc, etc have wrought .....
you can't keep giving these govt workers top wages and top pensions and benefits and expect that money will be there....

We’ll see,, a while back, they had a hiring freeze in place, but not for long after GuBBY came on the scene.

They describe Arnold as a "fiscal conservative" even though state spending grew 40% under his watch? The MSM is good for laughs.

That was North Carolina. Americans are fed up with high taxes and irresponsible spending. The Democrats ignore the mood next year at their peril.

And Schwarzenegger’s solution to the problem will no doubt be run for the Senate.

Arnie, the Marxist Dimocrat, married to a Marxist Dimocrat, saying he is a RINO republican. Go figure why his government is running up the tab. GWB did the same thing, and he paraded around as a conservative.

He will recommend more borrowing. The responsible thing to do would be to cut spending, institute a spending cap and put aside money in a rainy state fund. Instead, he spent like there was no tomorrow, imposed crippling regulations on California's economy and just borrowed to the max from Wall Street. Finally, the chicken are come home to roost. To be sure, the Democrats share the blame but the responsibility for California's fiscal mess is Arnold, who has no idea on how to get the state out of it.

What the hell is a...tax on property transfers??? I'd call it a sales tax applied when real estate is sold.

On top of these huge deficits Arnold and Dem's are on the verge of enacting a gigantic health care scheme that would cost untold billions. The credit card is about maxed out.
To: dearolddad
We have a virtual sales tax on property. The state confiscates 6% of the value of the property against future property tax due. You have to apply for a refund of the money in the following tax year. The net effect is that prices go up, up, up.

They are trying to put it on the ballot as a proposition now. I don’t think they can pass it through the legislature.
