Well if FACEBOOK's IPO can't solve California's budget crisis, then maybe this will...

[pointsal]

...Is there a Secret Service Discount?????

[Lurker]

By the time that IPO hits the streets not a single one of Facebook management will reside in California. I don’t care how liberal they are, they can read a balance sheet. Just you watch....

[Cementjungle]

You can't, he argued, tax a business based on content. Wouldn't be constitutional.

They do it with tobacco, liquor, gasoline and loads of other types of businesses.

[EGPWS]

What happened to Sacramento?

All of the sudden they want to tax everything and every one! /s

[tflabo]

What kind of ‘head’ are we talking about here?

[reefdiver]

The congress critter just has to spend, they don’t know the meaing of stop spending and cut spending.

[Stormdog]

I thought “Pole” taxes were illegal...

[EGPWS]

Tax strip club patrons $10 each time they enter an exotic dancing establishment.

Well, hey you have to breathe California air when entering a strip club in California don't you?

Look at the bright side, California pays California well enough to be able to afford California taxes don't they?

Besides, anyone who goes and receives entertainment at a strip joint certainly increases their chances of causing harm to someone especially if they are driving when they are in transit to and from a strip joint so they OWE California for the liability created because this. ~

It’s illegal to charge guys twice as much as women.

Or $10 more- depending on how it’s figured.

[G Larry]

You mean it’s gonna cost me $20 to get in there?

[sten]

how about a $10 tax on every starbucks order? it’d raise a lot of money

why not? it’s the same thing... people looking for a product and being serviced

besides... the libs would go bonkers

(I do realize people would just stop going... which is the intent of this proposed tax anyhow)

[P-Marlowe]

Lets have a $10 tax on everyone who goes to a movie that has nudity in it

[ThomasThomas]

They said it was modeled after the one in Texas.

[DBrow]

Most places I know have no cover, but do have a drink minimum (so I’m told).

[fkabuckeyesrule]

Of course the tax exemption list on this should be interesting.

[Little Ray]

Hmmm.
Desperate as California is for revenue, I wonder when they’re going to start taxing grills, fireplaces, chimineas, windows, and hot tubs?

[Uncle Miltie]

Why tax Welfare Recipients?

[Uncle Miltie]

Why tax Welfare Recipients?

[Humble Servant]

They’d have a budget surplus in that state if they sent Nancy Pelosi door-to-door and charged $1,000 not to take her clothes off.
