It's (tax hikes) coming, imo, not that I take any joy in saying it. Either that or massive long-term debt (also coming .. at least we get a shot at voting them down) on a pretty good sized pile already sitting there.
Also aren't the increases in fees(also known as taxes, parcel taxes, tuition fees, etc) at the local level due in some degree to the restructuring of where the money flows?
The bottom line ,, spending is out of control and remains so.
btw, Awful is an understatement, because as goes California goes the nation.
Are you a life long resident? I'm a 3/5'er myself, in the Bay
Area.
Born in Sacramento in 1946.

I did live out of state a couple of times 54-58, and 64-69.
What's a 3/5'er?
BTW our new wonderboy LA mayor can't seem to find enuf money for all his great ideas for us, smells like new taxes to me here locally, sadly.
