"Letting someone keep more of their own money is not a giveaway to them." It is when you're shortchanging necessary gov't services as what's happening in CA. That's wrong on two levels. 1 - The state of CA isn't shortchanged, it has vast resources, it spends and does to much, to the harm of Californians. 2 - Even if CA was starved for cash, letting someone keep more of their own money still wouldn't be a giveaway to them. Even if you start with the assumption that its important not to let them keep more of their own money, doing so wouldn't be a giveaway to them, it would just be a reduction in their required giveaway to the state.
