So long as you keep in mind that whatever the government "gives" to someone, it must first take away from someone else.

California is a politically fucked up state, they think raising taxes fixes shit...it doesn't, it makes things worse. People are leaving this state solely because of liberal policy because they can't do simple math.

Sadly I suspect once California actually does hit the bottom of the drain instead of acknowledging their mistakes all the imbecilic libtards will just blame it all on ex Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Never take responsibility for anything! That's the liberal way! And when in doubt blame the Republican politician who was in the office the prior term.

My grandfather recently passed and he had maybe 5-6 million GBP in assets and cash. He worked his whole life, even still doing 9-5 work at one of his guest houses for the hell of it, as he didn't need to lift a finger really.

He was very careful with his money, and funded a lot of the family through university, so we wouldn't have to get student loans etc, was overall very good with money.

Paid taxes all his life, and invested in properties/business etc so his family would be taken care of when he goes..........he would turn in his grave if he saw how much of the estate we had to pay the government in 'inheritance tax' WTF?????


EVERY PENNY OF THAT ESTATE HAD BEEN TAXED WHILE HE WAS ALIVE DAMMIT  >:(

13.3% CA tax on millionaires.  Meanwhile you can go to FL, TX, NV, etc. and pay 0% state income tax.

This is what "tax the rich" liberals don't want acknowledge, that the wealthy can leave. So, the logical progression is to stop these people from leaving. Before you know it, you're Cuba.

Tiger Woods laughs at Phil for not moving to Florida to help lower his taxes...There is no reason Phil can't have his main residence in Florida and still keep his Cali pad/s...

That's serious. I don't think we pay that much even in Finland and we have 'free' education from kindergarten to doctorship, food for every kid in school, health care, pensions, AAA-rating and what fukin' not.

Just got back from Finland. Nice country. Your economy is tanking though. Nokia subs to China and the paper/wood industry is now based in South America and China. Taxes you know.

The VTT, the national scientific research foundation, has been given the task by the Finnish government of turning the economy around through advanced tech. But before that happens, the Russians will buy up every last bit of land because they can, lol. They already are buying all the promising high tech companies through Rusnano.

And after talking to a number of people there, the health care system is minimal. If you want good doctors, you pay extra, This from the head of research at VTT.

Still, I like Finland and its people. Midsummers was crazy!

Silly liberal words.  Why not just take everything you earn too?  Even if you took 100% of the top income earners wages you wouldn't make a dent in the deficit.

So then, what to do?  Why not just take everything everybody makes (except the societal leeches)?  Compared to some worthless sod you are rich, so let's take from your coffers too.

Take Hollyweird's billions.  Film companies, actors, directors, every last one of them.  Take it all from every pro athlete, every corporation from their top exec  on down to the little man that sweeps the floor.

All of it.  Every red cent.  You deserve nothing when compared to some fifth world slumdog.  Take it all and if you dare complain we'll label you a racist or some such nonsense.


Don't just "level the field", turn it to glass.  No one deserves more than anyone else.  All animals are created equal.  Some animals however are more "equal" than others. 

Give it up, young man.  It's not yours anyway.  It belongs to "the people".  You just work for them.

And no, you can't complain about what you would have done to others just because it's being done to you.  Too.
