Dearest Democrat Carole Midgen,

Poor packaging on your part. There was no mention of "CHILDREN", "GLOBAL WARMING", or "MEAN SPIRITED REPUBLICANS". Woman, get up to speed!

I'm from MA and I am thankful for CA. It's nice to have someone to laugh at! Gray Davis...ROTFLMAO!

Doesn't matter how high they raise taxes, the socialists will want more. Government should be in a "funding crisis" constantly, it's the only way they will even consider reducing government spending and waste.

[Bonaparte]

"Nowhere in the article does it mention cutting government SPENDING."

A fact that is wasted on Carole "Mental Midget" Migden, as is the fact that creating jobs by attracting business always increases revenues. Fortunately, Bill Simon will be addressing both these facts over and over again during the coming months.

They just passed a prop. to take gas taxes and spend them on highway projects, can you imagine who thunk of that! Where do you think they'll spend the veh. reg fees on the DMV? dought it...

"and for dog dolls with wobbling head in the back window."

Did you mean to leave out the strips of little white fuzz-balls that hang from the tops of windows? :o)

"cuban economics."

Ain't that the truth!

If yer product ain't sellin' raise the price to make up the difference.

I have a friend who sells gasoline for a penny a gallon less than he pays for it; not much profit, but he makes up for it in volume!

This same premise - if you ain't selling enough of it, raise the price - is working at BART. Their ridership is down, so they - guess what - are planning to raise the fares!! What a bunch of geniuses. I guess they have to pay for the bit raises they all got last fall...glad I don't have to use BART for any reason.

bit raises = big raises. can't type

The bulk of these funds went to local jurisdicions for in lieu property taxes on vehicles . When they passed this the state made it up to the counties but I will bet you a Mikes Chili Cheeseburger with Garlic Fries that once again we will get screwed by Sac.

"This same premise - if you ain't selling enough of it, raise the price - is working at BART."

Yep. - Did you know that BART train operators make as much as 737 pilots do? - And BART cops make more than any other police department in the state.

[editor-surveyor]

Where is Mikes? - I don't know if I want to take up your bet ;o)

Typical brain flatus from a commy/lesbo in SF.

She and her other dark siders need our tax dollars and fees to enable their dark sider voting cults to live their chosen life styles dependent on our tax $'s!

Ever since Willie Brown as state Assembly Leader found out how to rape the California vehicle owners, we have been whacked hard every year. The massive $'s we pay in fees versus other states flow directly into the monthly checks to the dark sider voting cults. If those monthly checks were cut off for 3 months, they would be in serious trouble!

This is why the elected Dark Siders like this whacko will never try to reduce spending by the states/counties. They will just raise taxes and fees!
