There is no defense for this idiot RINO.

Tax hikes are very hard to justify under any circumstances. I don’t care what financial troubles a government might find itself in.

California is one of the biggest tax revenue-wasting states. I don’t get this from hard data or figures. But...

How can a state have such a concentration of illegal aliens (who receive “free” health care, free bi-lingual education (ESL), government employees who’s gay lovers can draw spousal benefits including paid health care (that will pay for sex change...excuse me - Gender Reassignment - surgery).

California is a state that has steadily been running businesses OUT of the state due to insane regulations and high taxes.

And now the answer, according to The RINO in chief... raise taxes.

How about cutting down the state Government to what is actually the responsibility of the State Government. Oh- that might hurt somebody’s feelings... The ACLU, the Gay, Lesbian, and Freak-show workers Union might throw a fit, and it might mean that the illegals might have to go home.... oh darn. What? Who will pick the vegetables? How about that nearly 9% of unemployed in California (maybe more - the new data is suppose to be released Friday). If you take that as a percentage of population - that is over 3 millions folks that could go pick vegies! Now - take out the old folks and the children - you are still talking about about a lot of folks who could get out there and pick!
