Wow, if you break that $400,000 AGI limit, you let us know... I know how much that extra 4.9% (on just the amount over $400,000) is probably going to cripple you....

Why hang around a carcass that has been stripped clean of all the meat? Just go find another animal and resume parasitic activities while complaining about the upper class and big businesses having too much wealth and making profits. That should work for a few years, assuming that we don't experience another global economic depression... Oh, wait.
Just like all the people from California coming to Colorado? Ruin their own state, and then head to Colorado and try to make over our state into the befouled nest they just left.
Like Prop 30 there. Was supposed to be a tax on rich people to help fund schools, but 1/2 the proceeds are going to unionized state employees.

Why work for a living when the populace can elect an Emperor and demand that everyone get an equal share? Is it just me or does the logic in that idea break down somewhere around the point that there would be no production and everyone demanding more entitlements?
I guess the collective "we" need to suffer from the mathematical truth after the promises of the continued Administration fall flat and reality comes back to the surface. How many years will it take before the collective "we" come back around to reality?
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

CA Constitutional initiative (enacted 1979)
Article 13 Section 3 of the California State Constitution requires a two-thirds majority vote by the legislature in order to pass any tax increases.
Prop-13 (1978) Passage of the initiative presaged a "taxpayer revolt". However, of 30 anti-tax ballot measures that year, only 13 passed.
The budget is bounding back. Home sales are up 25% from last year at this time. and they're probably going to have a budget surplus by 2014... Little by little they're undoing the damage that Howard Jarvis did... And it's likely Prop-13 will go the way of the dinosaur in a year or two. (Kind of like TABOR is going...)
