First, the liberal Democrats and Arnold Schwarzenegger overspent.
Now, with a $14 billion debt crisis, they are talking about raising taxes. And California is already one of the highest-taxed states in the U.S.
And, they talk about "taxing the rich." It's anti-Christian-envy rhetoric that is not just immoral, but counterproductive.
What's happening is that businesses are leaving California, resulting in a loss of jobs and opportunities.
And now...so are individuals.
Here are a few examples:
- Tiger Woods fled California, saving himself $4 million in 1 year.
- Natalie Gulbis made $1.5 million and moved to Nevada to avoid the abusive California tax.
- Scott McCarron left California for Nevada.
Of course, with our great weather, it's hard to think about leaving friends and families, relocating a business and moving to a no-income-tax state such as Florida, Texas, Nevada, or other lower-tax states. But the taxation in California is out of hand.
Liberal Assemblyman Paul Koretz represents wealthy locations in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. He says, "I have not run into in individual in my district who doesn't like the idea of paying a little more in taxes to shore up the education system."
And Assemblywoman Fran Pavley of Los Angeles said, "If you lived along the Pacific Ocean or the Santa Monica Mountains—yeah, you can't find that in Nevada."
It's becoming class warfare, and the politics of envy will cripple California.
