					<description><![CDATA[I like the idea of the 3 month part time Legislature. That way they&#039;d at least not be payed for the 9 months that they spend with lobbyist and campaigning, not to mention neglecting State business. 

- JUST VOTE &quot;NO&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[You are still not addressing my point.

I am not arguing whether taxes or the distribution of those taxes is fair and/or just. All I said is that if a law is enacted it must apply to ALL as written. That is not an unreasonable position. Otherwise we live under a fascist regime. The rich should not be allowed to park their wealth in secret offshore accounts free from taxation while the rest of us get gouged. If you believe that they should have the right to illegally evade what they legally owe while enjoying the finest fruits that America has to offer - and while everyone else pays through the nose - you are not a proponent of &#039;Equality under the Law&#039;. Just be honest and say it and I will respect your honesty.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Calif is UTOPIA-ZILLA due to progressive taxation...the users pay no taxes....

Are you all public school dumbed down?

Every government service should have a fee...pay or no service unless your disabled bonafide and lived in California two years bonagide.

A part time legislature..three months per year....

State budget rises only 3 % per year including pension costs and bond interest....no phony forecasts permitted..]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Queeg, there has to be SOME taxation to support gov which supports infrastructure and services. They should be 1) minimal, they should be 2) applied progressively and they should 3) give you a fair bang for the buck.

I think it is fair to say the gov has failed on all three issues.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;It gets tiresome reading diatribes by the envious...&quot;

And then there are those who love to promote two separate and distinct sets of laws in America....one for the oligarchs and another one for the serfs. 

And from the other side of their mouths they preach &#039;liberty and freedom&#039;.

Laughable.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[btw, the polls say that Prop 29 - the $1 added cig tax - is almost certain to pass. The people still haven&#039;t caught on. The general consensus is that taxes are fine as long as the other guy is forced to pay them to fill the deficit spending holes. So the masses will let the smokers (most of whom are from the underclass) twist in the wind - so long as the government continues to supply them with whatever free crap (medi-cal, medicare, pensions, food stamps, etc....) that they collect.

This is essentially why this country is doomed to fail. The peasants fight amongst themselves for crumbs while the government and 1 percenters laugh all the way to the bank. There is absolutely no unity amongst the masses. They have effectively been divided and conquered. The oligarchs are alot of things.....but they are not stupid. They are masters of manipulation and control.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hey, did ya see that they have a prop on the June ballot to raise the tax on a pack of cigs by $1??? Now the tax on a pack of cigs will exceed the cost of the product! :) I feel sorry for the smokers. Back in the good old days the government taught us that you had to smoke to be a man. Today if you smoke the government wants to punish you by sending you to the poorhouse. And don&#039;t believe the BS about how the extra tax is going to fund cancer research! :D Pull my other thumb too, Mr. Clown! You know where that money is going to go - to fund the public pensions and fill the holes in the State budget. And the smokers are generally the underclass and the poor. I think I may live to see the day when the government makes tobacco a Class 1 controlled substance. Then they can turn it into a real money maker like they have weed, coke and heroin! :D]]></description>
