For this tax increase to pass, it had to have 2/3 majorities. That means some traitorous dog Republicans had to cross over.

Taking away over $10,000 from a $300,000 property transaction (cheap by California standards) and setting it aside for the bloodsuckers in Sacramento, is a recipe for disaster. The buyer needs the money to "trade up", and the seller loses equity. Both sides will be further delayed, and yet another layer of bureaucracy and work gets created for state employees.

Can't have enough bureaucracies these days, yaknow .. what a bunch of gutless bastards they are in the legislature.
