I read all of the posts about citizens of California being upset with the existing government. Well, lest change it We the people are much stronger than any union or politician. Need an organization by the people for the people to fight all this crap. Try the ccpof/usa for example. An organization that is coming on soon and will take on the politicians in their offices and stop this crap of taxing and taxing and taxing and giving us a bunch of crap all the time and giving the taxpayer nothing in return except more taxes.

Oh stop complaining, if people don’t like it then move closer to where you work! Use more public transportation. Gas prices can jump to $5 or $6 a gallon and we will still see huge sales in large suv’s ,trucks and luxury sports cars. You got to pay to live in the golden state!!

These gas taxes don’t hurt the millionaires. Gas is such a small part of their income. It doesn’t hurt the welfare folks. They only have to drive to the store and to the welfare office. These gas taxes are a kick in the nuts to small businesses, lower middle class workers and the poor working class, the very people the dems say they speak for. But if the poor working class continue to vote for the dems, they get what they deserve.

Darrel Stinkbug has made it clear he wants energy prices high to hurt the little people. He said he wants the little people to feel a sting when they buy gas.

Working people who vote for DemoNcrats are idiots. It’s like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders.

As always in dealing with the legislature, and agencies involved with CA fuel supply, FOLLOW THE MONEY.
Fuel sales tax is based on RETAIL costs, on top of Fed & State Excise Taxes.(By gallon, not cost) No incentive to look into this, as prices drop, less money into the kitty. Higher prices mean higher tax revenue. On one of the blends, user mileage is less per gallon, 10%, thus one purchases more fuel, and more tax generation. “Conflict city” on this one, as less MPG, means more purchases and more pollutants in the air. Can you say GREEN HYPOCRIT over and over …………. But don’t feel too bad. In this state, the POOR Off Highway Vehicle community has been getting the shaft since 2011, with a TAKE in place, which is intercepting $10,000,000.00 (Million) per year off the top. A TAKE means, gone, nada, not a loan, just take the money…………………
Works out to a $833,000 per month slush fund for Legislature to use as they see fit……….
Don’t believe me? Call OHV at State Parks. They will verify……

The spike in gas is totally a cap and trade hike. We face a terrible increase in transportation cost as CARB ruins the small trucking companies. The plan is to make the larger companies join in the destruction thinking they will monopolize. But they are only sealing their own fate as well. Go to Stand and Fight clube inc. com for information.
