Now California Gov. Jerry Brown wants to hike sales tax another half-penny. The thirst for tax money is never satisfied in the "Golden State."

In other news. I just heard that Weld County, Colorado has (1) no long term debt, (2) no short-term debt and (3) zero sales tax. (I already knew about (3).) So it can be done, it just can’t be done by socialists.

I'm reading Reagan's autobiography and the same messes he cleaned up nearly 50 years ago (In CA created by Jerry Brown's father.) are the same messes that have come back today. The same applies at the national level, too (Messes created by Democrats (America hating Communists).).

California's state sales tax highest in U.S.

I live in Illinois and all you Californians go ahead and gloat now but I guarantee you, that we will catch and pass you!

Why are sales taxes more than 5 percent? It was enough in the old days, that you didn’t mind paying it. Now it hurts close to 10 percent.
