Yep. One more step towards the one party communist system you liberals are jonesing so bad for.Mikey wrote:At least Virginia, Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico have come around.
"Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George SantayanaGoober McTuber wrote:Thanks for the link, Chicken Little. I didn't read the whole story.

Interesting concept.
Yep, and guess what? We voted almost 2-1 to reform our three strikes law. It will probably put thousands of violent pot smokers back on the street, but at least it should save around $90 million per year.88 wrote:I'm glad that the People of California decided to raise their own taxes. Those who like that idea will flock there, and those who don't can move away and escape it if they so choose. That is how it is supposed to work, yo.

Nice two and three year old data you've cited there. I see it also doesn't mention why any of the companies moved (maybe because of the state starting to shut down the greatest university system in the world?), how much they were worth, or how many companies are moving into the state.The Seer wrote:Mikey wrote:

somebody que that EBT video.
liberalism is a mental disorder.
Should be easy to summon up that kind of data...that naturally suffiently impressed the voting populace....Mikey wrote: I see it also doesn't mention why any of or how many companies are moving into the state.
Go ahead and break it down for me. Lay out the "bang for the buck" we're getting on all these awesome services in California.Mikey wrote:the services we get
You actually think that has anything to do with companies leaving the state ?? Fucking myopic liberals.Mikey wrote:

Yeah, you're right. Having an available pool of educated and qualified potential employees has nothing to do with attracting and keeping business.Derron wrote:You actually think that has anything to do with companies leaving the state ?? Fucking myopic liberals.Mikey wrote:

Nope. It sure doesn't. As usual, you're completely assbackwards. The collapsing revenue base is the reason "the state starting to shut down the greatest university system in the world."Mikey wrote:Having an available pool of educated and qualified potential employees has nothing to do with attracting and keeping business.

But they are going to get more revenue by raising taxes. That should solve that problem, right ??mvscal wrote:Nope. It sure doesn't. As usual, you're completely assbackwards.

The revenue base is collapsing because businesses and productive citizens are fleeing the state by the millions. That isn't an opinion. It's a fact.

There aren't any in jail, you fucking moron at least not for smoking pot. California is already one of the highest tax states in the fucking cuntry and it's going bankrupt.Mikey wrote:Saving $100 million a year by letting the pot smokers out of jail won't hurt either.
I don't give a fuck.... As soon as the 9.0 shakes that miserable piece of land off the earth and you float to Asia, the better off we will be.Mikey wrote:Derron wrote:

Why do you care anyway?

Except for Hollywood which will be exempt from any onerous taxation. They're all about making you pay your fair share while they live high on the hog.smackaholic wrote:I am sure there are mega rich that will shrug this off, but, plenty of almost rich folk that are will pick up and leave.
I guess you're too old to comprehend something written in plain English.Wolfman wrote:Let me think this one over some more. Taxes increase, yet some folks like Mikey will still have the same amount of money to buy stuff. How can that be? AH---you do not pay taxes! Silly me.
