>>women and minorities hardest hit!<<’

No one saw that one coming!

From the article:

>>Personal income fell this year in California for the first time in 70 years, leading to a 34 percent plunge in income tax revenue during the first half of the year.<<

That would be the giant sucking sound of people who pay most of the taxes, individuals and employers, stampeding out of town. I wanted to do it but it doesn’t make fiscal sense.

When a state says “you work too hard so we will take the results of your efforts at the point of a gun” it is saying “we don’t want you or your kind here.”

They got what they wanted — all the revenue leaving town.
