...most voters, 65 percent, like the idea of a tax on the wealthy to support schools, but 52 percent of those surveyed said they don't like the sales tax increase.
Most Californians approve of raising taxes, as long as it's on someone else.

This just shows how stupid California is. All they have to do is ask for some more free Obama money.

The State of California Tax Policy in four words.

How much ya got?

I live here, I know. Our only saving grace is Prop. 13, and Governor Moonbeam along with every Democrat here hates it.

They could raise taxes on cigarettes to pay for more teacher benefits! Because, well, that's what the whole ‘send money to schools’ thing is about, more teacher benefits, or keeping what they've already embezzled.

Oh, wait, I'm sorry, someone else already beat them to the punch to fund their pet projects. Sorry teacher's union, you get to try to ask California voters who have already turned down raising their sales tax to say yes this time. Oh, look, the pot's sweetened as it raises the taxes on the ‘rich.’ Aww, how cute.

How about you just stop embezzling the people's money? How about you can those stupid union run health plans that cost up to five times as much as private insurance? How about you stop stealing the salaries of those who work for a living so you can buy even more ads to prop up politicians who will enable you to embezzle even more...

I do notice the prison unions are being awfully quiet..

They are greedy, selfish, and rude.

California schools are just one big fat drain with absolutely nothing good to show for the billions wasted on it.
