The voters have chosen NOT to have ADULT supervision....now comes the attack on Prop 13....
Oh! You are SO RIGHT!!!
I know the politicians in Sacramento drool over this prospect -- but I don't know if they really need to do this. They've run an effective 'end around' over the past few years by coming up with new 'fees' for almost anything... Who needs to raise taxes when you can implement/raise fees by fiat.
In addition, I believe Sacramento really wants the gasoline prices to continue to increase. This spike over the past two years has been an unexpected for those folks in the Capitol who couldn't balance a budget if their lives dependent on it. Because the gas tax includes a sales tax that is a percentage of the gasoline price per gallon - Sacramento has gotten a good boost to their revenue. They'll block off-shore drilling, or anything, that might drive the gas prices down...
Good thing that we're not relying on the temporal - because I don't see digging out of this financial hole with the leaders we have (and given that 'we've' voted them in -- we get what we deserve)...
“The voters have chosen NOT to have ADULT supervision....now comes the attack on Prop 13....”
The liberals and the MSM have never stopped attacking Prop 13.
However, this time we have a lot more younger home owners who used to despise Prop 13. Now most of those younger home owners will rally around to protect Prop 13.
