California didn't get a piece of that 1 trillion dollars for "infrastructure " & "shovel ready" jobs?
California spends nearly $3 Billion every year giving illegal invaders a better lifestyle than 75% of the rest of the world’s middle class. If they would use their already tax money smartly, they wouldn’t have to hike it to pay for things they are ignoring.
bttt!
relentlessly and secretly raising taxes without citizen input is “responsible governance” according to the one-cell author of this column. I wonder if he has some kind of deal with Sacramento that exempts him from taxes? Anyone who believes the new, secret gas tax revenue would have been used to maintain and expand California’s roads and highways hasn’t been paying attention to Jerry “Slow Speed Rail” Brown and his constant diversion of funds to the stupid train fetish of his.
California is a democrat one-party state, thanks to gerrymandering run amok, party/union cronyism, pandering to those ineligible to vote while helping them vote illegally, and buying votes anywhere and by any means, and the state republican party is one step away from extinction but the GOP, according to this author, wants to win.
Gosh! Democrats would never do something like that.
And the hard-left Marxists at the LA Times don’t????
What a load of bollocks.
Your chart is from before the new Brown tax was added. That’s an additional 12 cents per gallon. That brings it to 50.13 cents. Also, that chart apparently doesn’t include the local COUNTY and CITY taxes on top. Plus, of course CA requires a boutique blend of gas not used in other states, which costs more to start with, solely due to regulation.
LA Times called both GOP Governor guys “far right.”
The journey is a moron... according to this nutcase, being recalled is a bad thing...No, moron, it’s a great thing!
The amount of gas tax is not the main issue, it is that the gas tax goes to fund health care and education for illegals, not roads and bridges. If we had gleaming highways, good mass transit and effective traffic control, I would be happy to pay a relatively high tax. But we don’t.
