Yeah, but everybody knows that the consumers will simply pass it on to the homeless, right?

$800 million putting them up in hotels already wasn’t enough?

What, they need to stay at the Four Seasons resort now?

Taxing themselves into oblivion, and I would argue, purposely and for a greater agenda.

This, my friends, is how the Left will take over and ‘liberate’ the Red states. The Blue states, such as Cancerfornia, New York, etc. will utterly tax or make social and economic conditions so onerous, so cancerous, so willfully destructive that it will cause a Great Exodus ... that exodus landing and spreading their brand of cancer into RED states and areas, like it has in NC, Georgia, Texas, etc., etc., etc., etc.

“A de facto tax on consumers...”

Much worse than that.

The blue states are running up huge, unsustainable budgets.

With blue states in control of both the House and Senate in Washington they will vote for the federal government to bailout the blue states.

Responsible red states will pay for the profligate spending. The Treasury Department is ginning up the printing presses right now to spit out another several trillion dollars in counterfeit currency.

I suppose private charity toward the less fortunate is nonexistent in California. Ironic, considering the vast amount of wealth in Hollywood and Silicon Valley.

LOL! Keep driving them out Kalifornistan!
Soon, your state will be nothing but illegal aliens and the homeless.
Yeah, you got nice weather, but I’ll deal with the 4 seasons and rain over your insanity.

I think you are correct.
Here in the Raleigh/Durham area the influx of NYers is overwhelming.
As long as they leave their politics up there .fine. But...

You’re probably right, but I only do it under court order. And I kept all 4 kids.

If I’d shot her when I first wanted, I’d have been out by now.

2.4 billion equals 2.2 billion for the people who disburse it and .2 billion for the program/problem!
