Here's what he says -

"I am firmly opposed to raising taxes. Californians are already overtaxed. California has one of the highest tax burdens in the nation, and just about everything a Californian does today is subject to one tax or another. From the moment you get up in the morning until you go to bed at night, the tax collector is there to take a share - at your home, in your car, at the gas station, at the restaurant, and just about everywhere else you go and everything else you do.

It's unfair to accept the notion that hitting taxpayers up for more money is the answer to our state's budget and economic problems. Politicians in Sacramento should find a better way to turn things around – not simply shift the burden of their mistakes onto the backs of taxpayers."

Arnold says...I am firmly opposed to raising taxes.


Okay, now you know there are different levels of "firmness"..lol.

Pete Wilson said the same thing nearly word for word, then he gave us the largest state tax increase in US history because of a then "big" $3billion debt. Of course, that only caused the same debt to balloon to $14 because you don't make money on large tax increases, you actually decrease it by stifling economic activity.

Plus I'm well aware of what (R)nold says, his lack of a no new tax pledge distrurbs me greatly given the other details, I am asking if you, Weimdog, BELIEVE he will or will not raise the taxes?
