MD, Thanks for your thoughts. The taxes may reach a point where there is a revolt. California should be ground zero for such a public stand, but I'm not betting on it just yet. Take Care TH

MD, make sure to tell your kid to vote no on prop 1A, a massive tax increase disguised as a spending cap (on revenues, and 1A INCREASES tax revenues!) and a rainy day fund (if 1B passes, over $9 billion goes to the CA school teachers' union, no questions asked and with declining enrolment - and they are already the highest paid teachers in the nation!). i wouldn't mind a tax increase on the ballot so folks could vote for it, but they LIE THROUGH THEIR SOCIOPATHIC TEETH and call a tax increase and union payout as a "spending cap and rainy day fund." unbelievable.
