Gov. Gray Davis is expected in Friday's budget to propose a one percentage point sales tax increase to help pay for shifting about $6 billion in health and social programs from the state to county governments.

I love the way they worded this, it must be straight from the Camp Davis Propaganda Machine. A 1% ADDITION to the sales tax is actually a 12.5% increase above the current tax level.

Together, Together ... we will make California even better . to paraphrase Davi$ in his speech.

How much more can the legitimate and legal citizens of California take before the streets of Sacramento around the Capitol are filled with folks like Venezuelan protesters who are fighting to save their nation and letting the world know, Enough is enough.

Socialism does not work. They just don't get it.
