california’s problems are:
1. illegals’ schooling and health care.
2. city, county and state unions. their salaries and pensions are too expensive.
I got my car registration papers Thursday. It is three months early. I think they are trying to get people to pay earlier then normal.
This is only a temporary fix since if I pay now, they will have less in three months.
I have not decided if I will help them out or not After all it is not due until the end of September.
Shortly, a secondary market should develop for the IOU’s into which they can be sold for discounted cash price.
3. Taxes and regulations are excessive.
Unions control the State Capitol. If I had the power, no government employee could belong to a union. The state would be forbidden to deal with unions.
It is an unfair arrangement. Union provide money, support and manpower to the politicians. The politicians give the union what ever they want.
My question is, who is looking out for the interest of the taxpayers? No one, that is who.
What will happen if people decide to PAY the state with IOUs? Will the IOU become the de facto currency in California?
There is (or was for many years) an oil well in Beverly Hills. It is on the grounds of the Beverly Hills High Scool. If an oil well can exist in Beverly Hills, why can they not work off the coast of California. Open up the coast and we solve two problems. More money for the state, and more energy for the nation.
One of the largest industry in the state of California is farming. What is the state doing to encourage this industry? Nothing, in fact they are attempting to destroy it in the name of the environment. They want to shut off the flow of water to the central valley because some fish somewhere may be harmed.
Once again, environmentalist put aninmals before people. When will we have had enough of this stuff and say stop it.
Maybe when we do not have enough food to feed ourselves let alone the rest of the world.
Send them an IOU in September.
I don’t think it works that way. Governments are funny in what they allow themselves to do, but prohibit us from doing.
They are printing their own version of currency in lieu of distributing US currency. AKA COUNTERFEITING!
Near the end of the Roman Empire, taxes HAD to be paid in gold and silver. Money paid by the govt were in gold- and silver-plated slugs. The same DNA is in today's Democrats.
Does this business gal charge sales tax, or pay other taxes to the state on a monthly basis? Well then she should remit IOU’s, shouldn’t she. If all Kalifornia businesses/individuals began this practice, the criminals in Sacramento would find a budget deal soon enough.
Email Sacramento with your information. They don’t know this.
California legislators and their pension plans and other government employees still get paid with real money. No IOU’s for them.
You have it figured out. I told someone the other day that the eventual way out will be a shooting war in the streets with the unions on one side and everyone else on the other.
Looks like the prisons won’t get their milk and eggs. How sad.
