Either way, the FCC ruled that text messages can't be taxed as they are informational services and not communication services. California lost

Gov. Gavin Newsome is going to tax Cali heavily, he will make Moonbeam Brown look like a hard core righty. Get your popcorn ready.

If they have such a surplus, what's the logic behind taxing the people even more?houndawg wrote:Sixth largest economy on the planet running a 15 billion surplus and just listen to them..... nothing conks hate worse than paying their fair share...Col Hogan wrote:

Seems to me that Cali has enough of the taxpayers money. $14.8B surplus in addition to $14.5B in savings is incredible. Cali should return some of that money. Or make some serious investments in the state that would benefit everyone.

California is it's own worst enemy...
But homelessness is mostly a West Coast problem
http://theconversation.com/why-there-ar ... oast-96767
for the TL/DR crowd
1) West Coast Housing costs continue to rise even during the recession 10 years ago
2) Low wage earners income has not kept up with cost of living increases
3) Federal Funding for low income housing has been slashed
4) Top income earners wages have doubled in the past 20 years / compounding housing issues
5) There is no solution
