Semper fidelis. :)

You appear to have pwned tejek.

(Though it doesn't make the CA tax system any more rational.)

Bro tejek, re: You made a nice profit and was(sic) able to travel the world while the state is on a starvation diet.

Oh my, Bro tejek...sorry to offend...and, sorry to not explain the terms I used when I wrote: I was being taxed out of my home on a Marine's low and, in the short run, rather fixed income.

By the term, "Marine", I meant a member of the United States Marine Corps. You may not know that it is a branch of the armed forces of this country. en.wikipedia.org;

So then by "we seeing the world" you meant your platoon. I guess you guys are very close. My point was that your taxes did not go up during that period of time that you were defending the world and that's also true for millions of Californians. Unfortunately, the cost to operate the state continues to go up.......its expenses are not fixed at 1979 levels. Hence, the shortfall of revenue.....understand soldier? Carry on.
