I have noticed in Ca new taxes and surcharges appearing out of nowhere, whith no fanfare about tax increases. For example, I got a City parking ticket in December and 10 dollars was added to it as a state surcharge. Then yesterday I looked at my City utility bill and noticed new utility tax that is designated to go to the CA general fund, I had not seen that before.
They will get their new taxes by hook or crook, secretly with small increases in obscure areas so that people won’t take much notice as they would with a sales or income tax increase. Scoundrels, thieves, corrupt politicans to the core.
Tar, feathers, rope and guillotines, are apparently the only things that are going to put a stop to this.
I ordered online from Victoria Secret for Valentines day. Shipped to CA. I noticed on the total that I paid state taxes on the SHIPPING charge. When I asked them about it they said they were required by CA state law.
SHIPPING and handling is now taxable in CA!!!
Yes, I noticed in New Mexico that my utility bills have been going up ten cents per month. My phone bill has been going up ten cents per month, it is a flat charge, BTW, or is supposed to be. The troubled states are creeeping up charges to pay for their continued spending.
You forgot those cute little machines that accelerate tiny chunks of metal to supersonic velocities. / s
We got a $466 red light ticket.
Yes it is wrong to wrong a red light but $466???????
